Rinehart 😀

 

I just picked up a block 6x6 from lancaster on sale for 15% off. Never shot one but it got good reviews.

I have this target, it’s pretty solid. Broadheads will run through it in short time though, I’d do your best to shoot as little broadheads as possible into it. One side has a big pie plate sized shape that’s perfect for dialing in broadheads

 

Sevr is an excellent choice

 

Rhinehart or archery 365 targets

 

Matrix, a good broadhead target but skip the broadheads. Just use field tips and buy the cores your pretty goodBfor a long time. Blob or sevr for broadheads. Blob being the best for longterm, sevr for just a decent do-all target (no experience with either) Cheapest and best 60# big target is a seed tote stuffed with plastic wrap (stomped down) in a frame and keep the uv off of it.

 

My Rinehart has taken a beating and still looks brand new! Haven't shot broadheads at it yet but the replaceable core is a nice perk....and I imagine it'll be a long long time before I'd ever need to replace it!

Local shop uses 365s on their range and they seem solid as well!

One tip I heard with the Rinehart blocks with the replaceable cores, shoot field tips at the surrounding dots a lot more than the center, and only shoot broadheads at the replaceable core. That way the target will last even longer.

 

Which target would you recommend that is under $200 and works with both field tips and broadheads and is reasonable to pull from?

Rinehart RhinoBlock?
SEVR HD?
Morrell High Roller?
Block Infinity?
Other?


I tired the Morrell Yellow Jacket YJ-380 because it was only $100, but I don't recommend. Morrell got cheap with it and started glueing on some foam rings (not joking) for target faces now, and good luck pulling anything out of it. I'd rather spend double and get something decent.

 

Have never tried the Rinoblock. However I have 2 other Rinehart targets. The 18-1 and the 9 inch balls. I have tried Morell targets, Yellow Jacket. I will now only buy Rineharts by far my favourites.

 

Your neighbors shed

 

🤣….morrel gets my vote tho

 

Everything guns, ammo and archery costs over double the price here in Australia and that was pre-covid.
No way would I wreck an exy target with broadheads.

I would be collecting boogie boards to stick together or whatever free or cheap foam or rubber I could find.
Even the field tips can cut up the big flat target I have and start passing through.
I stuck 1 bodyboard on and not had a pass-through since.
Also, don't lose arrows as it is about 1m in size.
I lost a few shooting at the soccer ball size target at longer ranges.

 

I have the Morrell high roller, Rinehart, and Sevr. The Sevr is an awesome target. When I have to get another foam target that will be the one I choose.

 

I've shot a lot of targets and Rinehart foam are top shelf. Never encountered the Sevr or Matrix to compare, so I cannot speak to their quality. I currently own four Rineharts.....18 in 1, Rhinoblock, woodland buck and turkey.....all of them have held up well to my uses. None sees constant use and have a seasonal function, which I consider prudent for target life. Any time you pound away....especially with BH's.....you are going to experience reduced life in an archery target.

 

I have both a Rinehart 18-1 & SEVR and can't say that one of them is any better than the other, I like both of them. My recommendation is to buy which ever is cheaper or a blem between those brands and use it as a dedicated broadhead target, broadheads are tough on targets.

 

I’ve owned a lot of them and without a doubt my favorite foam targets are 365 archery. I believe the 24 is $199 and they are fantastic. Replaceable 10” 6 sided core is $70 and I’ve gotten well over 8000 shots out of a core and thousands of those were broadheads.

 

I have 3 365s and agree they are good if you can keep your broadheads in the 10” square. The added extra ring provides a lot of extra protection if you do miss the core. I use the 24s as broadhead targets and bags and 3D foam for field points. I probably will replace my 80 yard target with the 14” version once the sun degrades the outer ring.

But no way I can get “1000’s” from the inserts with broadheads. I’ve completely smoke 3 inserts this year.

Here is my 70 yard, 365 target but I still have a back stop behind it that is actually 48x48 targets blocks.

The 24” ring below has been used out to 100 yards and definitely saved many misses from me and my buddies on the 10” insert. This outer ring is probably 4 seasons out in the weather always. It is starting to show some degradation.

Another weakness is, as the out ring weathers an arrow that misses the very edge of the 10” inner can zip right through. If you look closely you can see we’re this has happened.

Truth be told I occasionally toss a broadhead into my 3D targets that have big replaceable cores, like the Reinhardt deers and antelope, but the turkey and boar are kinda too small

Here I have a couple broadheads in the target

All the weakness’s disclosed, I believe they are one of the best targets if you want portability in a larger sized target and for the most part are fairly confident most shoots will land in the 10” center with the 24” acting as a backstop.

Reinhart block is nice just small for long range sight in and broadhead testing.

I’ve had a couple of these cheap ones on the left and they are amongst the worst for broadheads. They are big and cheap so that’s a plus. But they are so light they move around, get munched quickly and arrows are hard to pull.

Broadheads do take a toll on just about any foam target I’ve shot.

I’m going to try blob next. Heard they last really long for broad heads.

My everyday shooting target is the 18-1. I really like it. After shooting braodheads at it last year, it chewed it up pretty good, but I think that will be the same issue with any target and broadheads. I vote for the 18-1, but those other targets you listed are good too. I've just had really good luck with reinhardt.

 

Those black hole targets seem cheap and sketchy but I had one long ago, was my first target. Lasted a long time

 

Another vote for Rinehart rhinoblock. That has lasted the longest for me of all the ones I’ve tried. Does seem to be a case of you get what you pay for with these targets. Arrow pull was tough for the first sets of shots (kept a puller on top of the target), and really tough if you put one through the plastic tube that holds the replaceable core! But that is the only bad thing I can say about it. After it wears in a bit it’s a great target.
Our local shop carries the Archery 365 ones and uses them on the range for various purposes. They seem to be well made and their replaceable core design looks good. No personal experience with them for long term use, but they look and feel like they’d hold up well.

 

Rinehart 18-1

 

Thanks everyone. Looks like Amazon has a great deal of $130 on the Rinehart 18-1, so can’t best that. The SEVR HD is larger and looks pretty good, but it’s $200 (no blems available). And the Morrell High Roller is $150-$160 and it’s 2” smaller than the 15” 18-1. So this was an easy choice with all the Rinehart endorsements.

 

I've both the Big High Roller and the 18-1. The HR is a joy to pull from while the Rinehart not so much. Figured I'd use the 18-1 for broadheads as the HR being softer wouldn't hold up as well. Shooting the HR with those big white dots is really fun and I'd buy one again.

 

Retail on Big High Roller should be $219.

 

There's a lot of price gouging going on. Not sure if it's supply and demand or just how it is with everything lately, but places like Lancaster are out of stock. They use to charge 209 for it, but amazon has some trolls charging 280 because they can

 

This question comes up a lot. If you’re getting just one target and plan to shoot it daily with both field points and broadheads then plan on it not lasting too long. If you want one that lasts the longest then buy one with the densest foam. Easily pulling and long lasting don’t typically go hand in hand. Use lube on denser targets until they loosen up from shooting.
My experience has been Block for field points and 18-1 for broadheads. Black holes are junk! With that said I have three big blocks of foam that some guy made from pouring carpet rubber backing into a cardboard box (he worked for a carpet manufacturer). They are the best I’ve ever used. Similar to blob I would think. I’ve had them for 12 years and bought them used from a field range that closed down. I paid $25 each. 😂

 

High Roller or 18-1

 

I like the High roller

 

I picked up the big high roller. It's the nicest target to pull from that I've tried for field points, which is what I'll shoot into it the majority of the time

 

I have a bunch of them. In the price range you mentioned you made a great choice in the 18 in 1. (Under $200.) However if looking for that bigger, buy once cry once, do it all foam target, the Matrix has been my go to now for the last 3 years of daily (100 arrows a day) shooting. The bigger size allows shooting at farther distances without worry and being able to replace the individual modules could make this target last forever. Pricey? Yep. Worth it, for sure. Even if shooting BH (which I don’t) is your thing, you buy one spare module and install it in the center just when you are practicing w/BH then remove it. Switching out modules literally takes a minute. Second would be the Rhinoblock XL and I think Big Jim’s archery is selling some blemish versions at a steep discount right now.
