IPSC Rimfire Popper Targets – 6MM AR450 Armour Steel
IPSC-Compliant Popper Targets for Rimfire Training & Competition
The SPI IPSC Rimfire Popper Targets are designed for shooters wanting a durable IPSC target system specifically suited to rimfire applications. Manufactured from premium 6mm AR450 armour steel, these targets provide significantly greater durability than mild steel while still maintaining reliable operation with lower-energy rimfire calibres.
Designed specifically for use with the SPI IPSC Popper Base System, both Mini and Standard Popper targets utilise the same mounting system and can be interchanged without modification. Simply select your desired target size from the dropdown menu.

IPSC-Compliant Dimensions
All SPI IPSC Popper Targets are precision cut directly to official IPSC Mini Popper and IPSC Popper dimensions with no additional border, oversized outline, or modified profile. This provides shooters with a true IPSC target presentation suitable for practical shooting training, club competition, and match preparation.
Configurable Target Operation
The SPI IPSC Popper Base System allows the user to configure the target in three different operating modes depending on the desired application:
✔ Forward Falling
✔ Rearward Falling
✔ Static (No Fall)
These modes can be quickly changed using the adjustment positions built into the SPI IPSC Popper Base System, allowing the same target plate to be used for a wide variety of training drills, club shoots, and competition-style stage designs.
This flexibility allows shooters to tune target behaviour to suit different calibres, target presentations, and training objectives without changing the target plate itself.
Whether you prefer a traditional falling popper, a rearward-falling target, or a static steel target that remains standing after impact, the SPI IPSC Popper Base System can be configured to suit your requirements.
The target plate incorporates a forward-leaning design intended to help direct projectile splash downward under normal operating conditions while maintaining excellent target visibility and realistic IPSC presentation.

Why Choose 6MM AR450?
The 6MM AR450 IPSC Popper Targets are designed for shooters wanting increased durability over mild steel while still retaining reliable operation with rimfire calibres.
They are ideal for high-volume .22LR shooting, .22 Magnum, .17HMR, and similar rimfire applications where mild steel may wear prematurely.
The 6MM AR450 option bridges the gap between economical .22LR training targets and full competition-grade centre-fire targets, making it an excellent option for clubs, training facilities, and shooters wanting a long-lasting rimfire target system.
For economical .22LR-only training, see our IPSC Popper Training Targets manufactured from 6MM Mild Steel.
For IPSC competition, centre-fire handgun use, and graded matches, see our IPSC Competition Popper Targets manufactured from 8MM AR500 Armour Steel.
