What material is inside the targets?If metal, can I bend the neck of the target below the twist?Bending back a little = down angle for BB bounce

Solid metal all the way through. The metal is pretty solid and the neck doesn't seem very maneuverable.

Each target is a solid piece of steel that is about 1/8th inch thick. You could bend the neck.

It looks like plain ole iron to me. Solid, about 1/4 inch. The yellow is just a sticker It MIGHT bend a little, might be better if its heated first. I would be afraid it might just crack off. It might be better to glue some closed cell foam to the front to absorb some of the energy of the shot.

I doubt it it's just not heavy enough I've had the targets bounce back around with high power airgun a rimfire would most likely damage the targets or even punch holes in them you could try .22 short or CB but any more I'm quite sure would damage it

It is metal. Honestly I would get another gun though. I bought this gun and for about a month it worked, then in the first battle, it broke. I would suggest going on Airrattle.com instead. Great guns! Hope you find this helpful.

Try to twist is 180 degrees.....push it further in when you try to flip it.

I have a Striker 1000S in .25 and it will spin them round easily. I have a spinner target designed for true firearms and the hatsan has no trouble knocking the target over if it's not fully in the ground. I would NOT shoot BBs at this as they will recoil.

The metal hoop can be bent if needed. I had to modify mine a little to accommodate a side mount light on the barrel.

You twist the base. Mine broke coming out of box from a 2 ft. Drop I was very disappointed with it.poor quality.

The shooting target holds up great to anything. I bang it with steel penetrator rounds all the time, just repaint with cheap white spray paint. What is the weak point is the black frame. It gets all the ricochets and it is only stamped metal. Mine has not crumpled yet but is in rough shape. All in all I would definitely recommend, it is a good target and is fun to shoot.

You cannot use metal BB's. Metal BB's are a smaller diameter and are to heavy I imagine. Hope that answers your question.

Metal. I prefer the silver (zinc plated) Daisy BBs, they don't leave residue in the barrel like the coppery Crossman ones can.

The short answer is this target is a heap and will not stand up to a beating. After two sessions of shooting with .22 caliber, parts of the target began flying off and the target paddles would not return to their original positions.

Definitely agree that this is not suitable for building an AR. The punches bent on the 3rd hit. I got the job done, but it took both of the small punches from this set being bent to hell. I haven't purchased any other sets, but I can't recommend these for an AR build.

Probably won't spin the target, but will make noise when you hit it. be careful of ricochet though!

From my BB gun experience many years ago, I would suppose it would suffice if one placed a paper target in front of it. When used with arrows, of course, the arrows will show the point of impact. After a period of time with BBs it would be hard to tell where the BBs hit, and the accuracy of the shooter. If the shooter is not fairly accurate, I would look to a larger backing, such as a bale of hay.

You're pretty much good with any bb (metal) that's available. However, this is made manly for pellets so I would suggest that if your looking for power AND accuracy. BB ammo lacks accuracy.

Don't know: I haven't seen any issue using the steel BBs, but I know some people only put lead pellets through it. (Also be aware, copper BBs are only copper coated). It's a great plinking rifle.

Any AirSoft bbs I've seen (kid across the way has one, and I constantly find the bbs in my yard) appear to be of larger diameter than metal bbs. Besides, I wonder if the soft texture of Airsoft bbs might foul a bb gun.
