Somehow I doubt that.

I received replacement 1/4" AR500 Chickens last week. They seem to be fine.

I am surprised at the dings in 1/4" A36 steel Pigs though.

Now don't underestimate my inepitude.

Now that is funny Dave.

Jerry, it's true too!

Just as answer to a question stated earlier in the post. Carbon steel had a density range of 7.75 and 8.05 g/cm3 (higher the number the denser the material). A36 and AR500 carbon steels both have a density of 7.8 g/cm3. Ductile iron is slightly less dense at 7.1 g/cm3 (mostly due to the higher carbon content).
So essentially from a "weight" standpoint they are nearly identical. The more important property is deformation from impact which is measured by hardness (resistance to penetration) and toughness. A36 has an average hardness of 137 Brinell whereas AR500 has an average hardness of 500 Brinell (over 3.5 times more resistant to penetration). Ductile iron can range from 150 to 300 Brinell depending on heat treatment.

In an attempt to get a longer spinner life in case I get better and actually hit the target I bought some targets from Mr. NCSilhouette himself and made up some spinners.

I expect they will last a good long time.

Especially with my hit and miss ratio.
