Coyote Reactive AR500 Steel Target with Vital

I reached out to Double Tap to see if they would be able to make us a steel coyote target. To our surprise they had just finished up running these when I asked, so went picked one up a couple weeks ago. We finally got to put it to use last weekend. Several of us took shots on this target from 50-300 yards with multiple calibers 22-250, .223, 6.5cm and 6mm. As a group we were very impressed with the durability and stability of this setup. The reactive vital area is a huge plus. We tried some HVAC tape on the vitals to help with the thermals but I think it was totally unnecessary. While sitting out in the sun, it heated the target up enough to clearly show in the thermals. We have put shots on a bunch of targets and I can assure you that you won’t be disappointed in this product!

While in the shop, I also checked out all of the tripod options. These are something you definitely want to look at as well if you’re in the market for a solid foundation for your shooting setups. Customer service was top notch in every instance beginning with the initial phone call. These folks are very helpful and knowledgeable so give them shout and I’m sure they will get you hooked up!

Hello Gunnar,

Thank you for taking the time to share your experience and for including a picture with your review! We’re thrilled to hear that the Coyote Reactive AR500 Steel Target with Vital exceeded expectations and held up to the variety of calibers you tested. It’s great to know the reactive vital feature added to the experience and that the thermal visibility worked even without the HVAC tape!

We appreciate you stopping by the shop and checking out our tripod options as well. Your kind words about our customer service mean a lot—we take pride in making sure every shooter gets exactly what they need.

Thanks again for your support!
