I got my first steel target, since joining a club that encourages use of personal steel. I just need to get chains to hang it. What is a good size amd length to use to be practical?

Depends on the hanging location and the size of the steel.I got my first steel target, since joining a club that encourages use of personal steel. I just need to get chains to hang it. What is a good size amd length to use to be practical?

There is also the Last Stand Target Holder if you are using the Last stand green triangle pieces and rebar. I've switched over to straps and these after shooting a few too many chains off by either myself or usually someone else with me. Though I did have a couple of times with a weird bit of luck where I managed to hit the carriage bolt head and blow the round part clean off leaving only the square part of the bolt head left in the target. Did that with .308win and 30-06, each on separate occasions.
This. I have the last stand holders as well as these rubber hangers from shootsteel.com. The chains are a PITA and don't last as long.There is also the Last Stand Target Holder if you are using the Last stand green triangle pieces and rebar.
