Are you that indecisive that you need that many targets?   ;)   Heck, I thought I was doing well with 25 or so.   But if you count my buffalo heard, that puts it closer to 75 metal targets.   Buffalos dont eat much.

I guess so.  ;) Sounds like your setup is much like mine. I have lots of squirrels and other small varmint knockdown targets and lots of hangers from my three-gun Competition days. Lots of different ranges of all sizes. I shoot a lot of modern as well. All silent on the range now that archery deer and dove is open though. Only sound to be heard on the farm this time of year is the screaming rabbit on the predator call and the occasional silenced unmentionable.

Why do you buff it?   I just use the cheapest spray paint I can find, and give them a good spraying.

A lot of my unmentionable bullets will make a decent splash and leave a thin scale of lead, copper, slag... whatever it is I just swipe it off with the flapper wheel and hit it with El Cheapo white paint.

I may have to just spray it and see how it holds up.
