Pistol/Light Rifle EVO-Popper Kit – Base + Half-Size IPSC Style Silhouette Target (8mm AR500)

Reactive Target System for Handguns, Light Rifles & Shotguns

This Pistol/Light Rifle EVO-Popper Kit combines the EVO Target Base with a Half-Size IPSC-style silhouette target plate made from 8mm AR500 armour steel. Designed for handguns, PCCs, and light rifle calibres, this system delivers high durability with reliable reactive performance in a compact, ground-based setup.

The silhouette profile provides a practical engagement zone for dynamic training, while the EVO base allows you to fine-tune how the system reacts. With adjustable spring tension, selectable reset modes, and no need for bulky frames or posts, this kit is built for consistent feedback and real-world shooting applications.

✅ Key Features:

✔ Complete EVO System – Base and silhouette target plate included
✔ 8mm AR500 Armour Plate – Built for pistol and light rifle durability
✔ Half-Size IPSC Style Profile – 476mm tall x 230mm wide
✔ Adjustable Reactivity – Tune response using spring tension and limiter positions
✔ Auto-Reset or Fall Mode – Configure to suit your training style
✔ Compact Ground Setup – No frames, posts, or complex setup
✔ Australian Made – Built in Gippsland, Victoria

🔧 What’s Included:

  • 1 x EVO-Popper Target Base (main body + detachable legs)
  • 1 x Half-Size IPSC Style Target Plate (8mm AR500 armour plate)
  • Stainless Steel Pins, Clips & Recoil Spring
  • Target Mounting Bolts
  • All Required Assembly Hardware

🛡 Target Rating – 8mm AR500 Armour Plate:

Suitable For:

  • Handgun calibres (.22LR to .45 ACP)
  • PCCs and light rifles (.223 Rem, 5.56 NATO, .300 Blackout)
  • Shotgun (birdshot and buckshot)

Not Rated For:

  • Calibres above .300 Blackout
  • High-powered rifle cartridges or extreme velocity ammunition

Recommended Use (Angled – EVO System):

Handguns:
🔹 Angled (16°–20°+): 10m+
🔹 Vertical: 15m+

Light Rifles / PCCs:
🔹 Angled: 30m+
🔹 Vertical: 50m+

Shotgun (Birdshot & Buckshot):
🔹 Angled: 15m+
🔹 Vertical: 20m+

🔹 Max Velocity: 2,750 fps
🔹 Min Velocity: 750 fps
🔹 Max Energy: 1,500 ft-lbs

📌 Subsonic rounds (<1,100 fps) may reduce reactive performance

📌 Regularly inspect target condition when using rifle calibres

⚙️ How It Works:

The EVO-Popper system is a spring-assisted reactive target. When struck, the plate rotates backward and reacts based on your setup:

Auto-Reset Mode (Spring Installed)
The plate returns forward after each hit for continuous shooting

Fall Mode (Spring Removed)
The plate falls back and stays down for clear hit confirmation

Spring Tension Adjustment

  • Lower tension = easier activation for pistols
  • Higher tension = improved control with rifles

3-Position Limiter System

  • Short travel = faster reset
  • Longer travel = greater visible movement

⚠ Higher tension combined with limited travel increases impact force and wear over time

📊 System Notes & Setup:

  • Plate Size: 476mm (H) x 230mm (W)
  • Mounted Height: ~600mm total (varies slightly with setup and terrain)
  • Mounting Pattern: EVO 4-bolt system only

📌 Taller silhouette profile helps keep impacts above the base during normal use

📌 Optional V-Stakes or 300mm Nail Pegs recommended for added stability (sold separately)

📌 Additional Notes:

  • Target plate is supplied raw/uncoated
  • Images may show painted or powder-coated finishes for reference
  • Base is not armour-rated — avoid striking the base directly
  • Modular system – replacement parts available

📘 Resources:

  • Instruction Manuals – Setup and adjustment guide
  • Safety, Distance & Calibre Ratings – Always follow recommended use

❗ Why Non-Compliant?

While this target mimics the silhouette of an IPSC torso, it is intentionally not dimensionally compliant with IPSC match regulations. This allows the EVO system to prioritise real-world usability, improved performance, and practical setup over strict competition sizing.

🔔 Summary:

A durable, centre-fire capable reactive target system built for pistols and light rifles. The Centrefire EVO-Popper AR500 Kit delivers strong feedback, adjustable performance, and reliable operation in a compact, ground-based setup.
