Tom’s Targets Pivot Know Your Limits – AR500
The Pivot Know Your Limits is a spinning steel target designed to improve your group size and shot consistency. It features five gongs in descending sizes: 150mm, 125mm, 100mm, 75mm, and 50mm, mounted on a pivoting frame made from 10mm Hardox 500 AR500 steel.
As your accuracy improves, you progress through the sizes, shooting smaller gongs to challenge your precision. Each gong spins on impact, providing immediate visual feedback when hit without requiring a separate indicator.
The interlocking design assembles and disassembles without tools. Once assembled, the target stands approximately 0.6m tall and 1.4m wide. It is designed for easy transport between range sessions due to its modular breakdown.

This target has significantly improved my accuracy over time. Starting with the 150mm gong and moving down to 50mm as I got better, I noticed my group size tightened noticeably. The spinning feedback after each shot is very helpful. It’s sturdy and easy to set up. I appreciate the tool-free assembly and disassembly.

Great for progressive training. The size progression challenges me to improve consistently. The pivot feedback is clear and immediate. It’s a bit large for small ranges, but worth it for serious practice. Assembly is simple and the steel feels durable.
