Daniel, the one I regularly use is at Charlie Boswell's Comp-N-Choke shop. It get shot thousands of times a year by customers trying out different constrictions to see which will pattern best in their turkey guns. Most of these are maxxed out 3 1/2" loads, fired at no more than forty yards, many at thirty. The plate is 1/4" diamond plate steel with the back (smooth) side toward the shooter. It has been in constant use for at least six years and is not deformed or bowed at all.
P.S. Never shoot steel loads at a steel pattern plate, too great a danger of bounce back.
