I'm looking for a target for 22lr pistol (maybe 9mm occasionally) @ 10 - 30 feet. Would this target work?

I was using a 45 and it handled it with ease. The only problem I had was it would fall over. After weighing the legs down with a sand bag all was good

Absolutely. Although, with 9mm, I wouldn't shoot at them inside of 7 yards. There's enough fragmentation from the bullet striking steel that it could make things slightly uncomfortable.

Yep, I have an AA S510 .22 and I flip the small .22 lr target at 60 yards that plate is about 2 inches. I think at 25 yards your going to destroy the target after a few hundred shots. I would go for the .22 lr target. You might not be able to reset them , but you can always shoot them down. Oh and the .22 lr target bends up if you shoot it at 25 yds with .22 lr. When that happens I flip it around and shoot from the other side.

I just tried it; at 25' made a slight splat. If you're wearing proper hearing protection, you would not hear it. This is also the wrong target for a .22; there's a substantial danger from disintegrating slugs. These same people make a .22 version of this target.

I have the scope on a 22, I would worry about how well it would handle the recoil. But for the money it's worth a shot

I would defiantely second this response. Three to four inches depending on target. Don't go messing with underground lines!!!

If you find mounts for the rifle it will work but I think it's over kill. There are some excellent scopes that are lighter and made for .22 and air rifles. I'd give one of them a try.

Yep, target box is designed for .22 caliber bullets which go along at about 2200 fps. Just make sure that you hit the box! or at least have a good backstop for it.

The target itself looks about a 1/4 inch steel plate and will spin around (if shot with a big round 45acp or 357sig) and the larger heavier portion will always end up at the bottom, a 22lr barely moves it- try to avoid blasting it with 7.62x39 it will destroy the target and posts all together-

I believe it would handle it, but would be careful about the shot bouncing back. I have used .22LR and 9mm on it with no issues. I put it out at 10-20 yards and use whatever is handy. Usually one roll per shot with .22 and can roll pretty good with a clean hit with the 9mm.

Like the previous answerer I have also used this on rifles of larger caliber than .22. I'm certain it will be fine.

The further away the better (10ft max due to cable length). You will see both the device and the target easier. If you have a scope on your gun, turn it down to the least magnification. Do not shoot if you can not see your gun sights, your chrony and the target. They must line up. Take your time and good luck.

I have a 30 inch draw and it works fine. I could robin hood from 30 yards over and over. Also, if you're going to use a release, it's going to be more than enough, but even shooting traditionally you will be fine.

Yes it will. The actual targets will but the frame will not. I have shot at mine with .22, .40, 9mm and .223.

Good shooter in basement at 7 yards. May have a useful range of 10 or so but can't comment on theultimate distance a pellet might travel, if that is your issue.

Depends on what your intended use for your 22LR rifle is. On general purpose "plinking/hunting" rifles I mount fixed 4 power scopes, they are smaller, lighter, less complicated and less prone to failure. On "hunting/target" rifles I mount either 2-7 power or 3-9 power scopes. That said, ten bucks more for the 3-9 sounds like a good deal. I have shot a lot of paper and live targets over the years without the aid of a bullet drop compensator, "Kentucky windage" has served me well.

Great scope out to 250 yards any further you may need 3 x 9 x 50. That 22-250 is a flat shooter. Good luck.

This is made of stout metal and was bought to use with BB guns. Too heavy for BB's to move the targets but would work with a 22. May have to anchor it down to keep from flipping over when frame is hit.
