This for all you Heavy Equipment/Off Road equipment owners out there in Sniper Hide land. Not sure if this has been covered or discovered, but I stumbled onto, what I think, is a great find. My father owns a Grading buisness, and is always changing out metal on the buckets/blades of many types of earth moving equipment. With that said, I decided to try out one of the bolt in place used cutting segments from a Cat 953C bucket as a ballistic plate. Well, it worked with my .308 150 grain full metal jacket at 100 yards. Didn't even leave a dimple, just a splatter mark. I've always wondered this and final tried it. Now I'm not saying to all non-equipment owners to go out and buy the cutting segments, because they are more costly than AR500, but what I am saying is all equipment owners can take there used segments and make targets. My next project is to try the bobcat bucket cutting edge. It's thinner, but i think it's made of the same material.
