We've gotten all of ours from the local steel supply house for much less than I've seen online anywhere. If you've got one close give them a call and ask. The pacific steel around here keeps a small stock of rounds cut out of ar500.
JC Steel, MK Machining, and Rogue Shooting Targets. Used them all and they've all been great.
Give Jake Vibbert a call at JC Steel and he will get you set up. Jake is ALWAYS willing to answer questions and offers flat rate shipping with his excellent customer service. Buy with confidence.
I've been really happy with this one.

I use HD Steel Targets for 90% of my steel. They are only about 20 miles from me, so it makes it convienant. Although, I do have some from JC, too.
Target Hanging Solutions contributes to a lot of prize tables in the NRL, as does AA Targets. You may want to reach out to them if you shoot NRL matches.
LV Shooter targets - stocked up many years ago - I believe he's still around and a 'hide member.
Spring Loaded Steel Targets
LV Steel Targets specializes in spring loaded steel targets.

I just ordered some from atlas target works. Their prices were really good for poppers, and it was free shipping over $99. I think I received my targets 3 days after I ordered them.
Shootingtagets7 for me also. Have a whole pile of their stuff. Very reasonable prices
I can't say enough about JC Steel targets,,,used them for years, I mounted one up wrong on spring base (I know), despite that Jake replaced the target with an upgrade knowing it was clearly my fault that it became damaged, no charge. Knowing the work he does for youths, I then made another purchase. (The least I could have done).
I've got steel from many different manufacturers. As long as they are AR500 or AR550 they hold up fine as long as you don't get closer than recommended. Of all the targets I have though, this one is a hoot for rifle. Just get it out there at 400+ yds and challenge your buddies with it. Up close, a .45 ACP or greater pistol will swing the plates, too.

Four Plate Rifle Tree — Red Stitch Targets
Our four plate rifle tree was borne from shooters wanting a long range dueling tree so we put 8" target plates on it and it is armored as standard. this tree is intended as a longer range target for calibers above 5.56

Atlas Target Works are the greatest. Great service and speedy delivery
Depending on location, I had great success with Steel Ops out of Ft Collins. Prices were great and the quality was above the other steel I'd been using. The AR550 steel was a massive improvement over AR500 to me for extended use.
Magnumtarget. I've got quite a few of them on my range and they are great. Prices are fantastic as well.
I got more 1/4" thick AR500 coming from a local steel supplier. I'm not a dealer or anything like that but my buddy who works there where they have scraps and I have them cut them into targets. Check out my thread in the for exchange forum. I have 12" squares and 66% ipsc coming. 12" squares are $19 each and the 66% ipsc are $35 each. PM if you interested I should have them by end of next week.
I am pretty sure no one will touch those prices. Last batch mill certs we’re more in the ballpark of ar530. Good stuff at a incredible price

When you start pricing, 3/8" AR 500 may be much cheaper than 1/2".
I have shot 3/8" thick AR 500 steel at two and three hundred yards with a .338 Lapua Mag, HPBT bullet, with no trouble at all. I hope that helps you save some cheddah/money.
