Thread: Texas Star Target

Anyone know the contact details of the fella that was building these and advertised in the bullshooter and PNZ trading post?

I am trying to sort one for our club and see he is not on there anymore.

Any help appreciated, thanks.

Check your email....

They look the biso to. Looking to buy 2..... Frieght from hamilton is a bit though.....

Yeah got it thanks mate.
Looks to be a good setup alright.

But freight is a fucking rip off!!
Almost cheaper to drive up and pick it up FFS!

Anyone driving down these ways from Hamilton for the roar?

3200 for a container from asia, seems rather cheap.......
However the stars are a real good price i recken.

Ive shot a few now (very popular as CAS targets.
The ones youre talking about have small tagets and not sure that they are suitable for 223 etc
A guy with the palmy club makes one that has larger targets and made from bisaloy so suitable for 3 gun rifle as well, although dearer they are much better made

@magimps details please....

Dearer maybe, but freight was a killer from Hamilton.

I am still waiting on approval from the club to buy one.
Can you also pm me the details of the 3 gun capable ones please @magimps

Pretty sure it was from the guy in the bullshooter. He was dropping it off as he was down that way so avoided the freight cost.

I take it you still have not sourced one yet @Beaker.

Maybe we should combine freight if we find something?
We have a pre AGM coming up.
I should have an answer either way soon.

Na haven't got one. It'll be a while for us.
Combined would be good, but can't commit yet.

I'll fly the idea at our next meeting.

Our Texas Star target arrived yesty and I had a wee play today.
We got a deal on freight so the overall price of the target didn't workout so bad.

I do think I could make one a little bit cheaper if I had all the gear and materials. But the club buying one ready made works out easier in the long run.

Paddles are pretty small at 6" as mentioned before, but it is actually well made. It was easy to move around and setup for one person.

Shot it at 10 and 15m with both the CZ 9mm and Chaos in .40

Didn't find it that hard to hit all the plates unless I shot one of the lower ones first and she got a bit of momentum up.😆

Shooting at it in a big match may be different but I managed clear it a couple times from the holster as fast as I can shoot a 6 plate rack.

It would be a bit better with larger plates imo.

Once I load up some more ammo I will try and put up a vid for shits and giggles.
