MODULAR ARMORED TACTICAL COMBAT HOUSE - Action Target

plywood vs. rubber ConTInued
Again, Action Target offers both plywood and
rubber skin solutions because each approach
has unique benefits and drawbacks. For example,
plywood is much less expensive initially, it is
easier to work with, and it provides the best
price-to-performance ratio. It comes in realistic
sizes, it doesn’t require special tools to cut, and
it is doesn’t have to be ordered through a
specific vendor. The only thing you need to mount
the plywood is a screw gun and a few screws,
and it is very easy to paint. Keep in mind that
plywood is required if the walls are to be filled
with crushed rock for safe use with rifles.

On the downside, plywood is a harder material
so bullets create instant and obvious holes.
Repeatedly firing into a tightly focused area
can cause larger holes to form. As the holes
grow larger, they must be patched to maintain
splatter and ricochet protection. Moving your
targets around frequently and using portable
bullet traps are both effective ways to minimize
damage to the plywood.
