la bala Posted November 16, 2013 Report Share Posted November 16, 2013 No rabbits about, so fired the welder up and made myself a spinner target. Havnt tried it yet, just wondering if the discs, made out of 6mm plate will be to heavy. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Muddy Funker Posted November 16, 2013 Report Share Posted November 16, 2013 I reckon that'll be great. I made the mistake of letting my mate shoot at my bisley double spinner with his HMR. Silly move hahaha. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

la bala Posted November 18, 2013 Author Report Share Posted November 18, 2013 tried the spinner out today, was spinning it at 90yds with winchester subs. wondering if 17s would be ok on it, the discs are 6mm mild steel. what do you lads think ?

sirgoldalot Posted November 18, 2013 Report Share Posted November 18, 2013 (edited) nope go straight through or do major dents...well they go through on an old steel double radiator at 90yards if you got some off cuts try those first rather than wreck your work...

kent Posted November 18, 2013 Report Share Posted November 18, 2013 6mm plate is substantially thicker than a radiator the web wont even be 2mm I recon, I should give it a few and see. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

alendil Posted November 19, 2013 Report Share Posted November 19, 2013 just weld extra plate on bottom disc and use this one for hmr. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kent Posted November 19, 2013 Report Share Posted November 19, 2013 10mm might be to heavy to spin... Depends on the balance really. if they are both equal central, free running and equidistant i should think you could get away with quite a bit. Of course there is always AR plate, though bits of scrap seems ok you can soon grind them off and replace as and when Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
