Rinehart 18-1 target- any good?

[Huntingnut]

I'm looking for a good broadhead target...one that lasts through more than a summer.I've got a GlenDel 3-D target that I use for field tips, but it doesn't hold up all that well when I start running broadheads at it.I knida like the idea of the 18-1, something I can kick around the yard and take on hunting trips, plus I've heard good things about them.Anyone here used one?

Great target - have been using one in the basement for two years - broadheads and field points. If you shoot one out in a year, apparently the company will replace it. Although I have finally shot through this target, there are still spots which can be utilized. Will be getting another - they are a little pricey though.

Mine is reserved for broadheads only. Arrows come out easily. I doubt I'll wear this one out in two or three years, much less one. Great target, even if a bit pricey.

If it'll last two to three years, the price isn't all that high IMO.Thanks for the feedback.

Don't have one, but have heard/read nothing but rave reviews. It'll be my next one.

As good of a target that you will find at stores. BTW, Reinhart make a little ball that you can throw out in the yard  ...  best practice with less weight that you can get.  Just throw it in the yard anywhere and shoot.  Great for shooting at various distances and angles and it's only $40 or less.

If you want the BEST target that money will buy (IMHO) check out the BLOB, but shipping will cost as much as the target if you can't get it locally.

I have had one for 2.5 years and although it is starting to get shot up pretty good it was easily worth the money.

I got my first one about this time last year.  I shot it to crumbs by June.  I even shot it after it was just chunks in a pile on my sand hill.  I was shooting about 500 arrows a week.  I got the replacement free.  I tried not to shot it much to save one it, but I did shoot on it some. I mostly shot my bag targets over the summer and fall with field points.  I then started to shoot broadheads into it about August.  By October I was strapping it with duct tape to keep it going and somewhat together.  
Once you pound it a lot the inside turns to crumbs of rubber. Then when the outside starts splitting it will pop open and spill out a lot of the stuff.  Broadheads really do them in at least for me shooting vented three and four blades it did.  I tossed what was left of the shell of #2 target into the trash in December.  
I am not saying it is not a great target, but if you shoot a lot particularly broadheads, it will not last anywhere near a year.  However, I don’t know of any target that will last any longer, be as portable, and allow shooting from all angles including from a tree as nice as this target.  For the price for two targets it is not bad at all.  Just plan to shoot it out before the year is up unless you really don’t shoot that much.

I am on my second year with mine, and have only shot 4 of the sides. Well worth the money IMO.

I only use mine for broadheads and it seems to be holding up ok.

God bless,Mudd

I love mine, has held up great!

The Rinehart 18-1 target is a very good product.

I do honestly believe I could wear one out in ~4 months if I continuosly shot Big 3's or large snuffers into them. My Big 3 set-up digs deep and the vents on a large snuffer pull out excessive amounts of target material.

My goal is not to challenge the warranty.
I am on my second one and plan to purchase a third.

 I've had mine for a year and I usually just shoot field points. I think it will last at least another year. I put it inside when I'm finished practicing.

Excellent target !!!

Good target I agree with Extrema that the broadheads will wear it out fairly quick. Mine took a lot of field tips fine but when I switched to broadheads "mine were stingers" it lasted about three months more. I would buy a rinehart animal target before another 18-1.

I've had great luck, I have had mine for nearly a year, shooting daily using only broadheads about 20 per day, shot outside all last summer and have been using it in the basement over the winter, still looking good!

[sj_lutz]

I'm on my second one, first one made it 2 1/2 years, and I've got no reason to suspect that this one won't last as long, or longer.

[frassettor]

I love mine. I shoot both broadheads and field points in mine

[Bowwild]

I like it.

In fact, we will be giving one to the first 40 volunteers to sign up to work the NASP National tournament this year plus one of the following: Dozen Easton Axis N-Fused arrows, Genesis Bow, or $100 cash.  Need 115 volunteers to work this 6,900 kids tournament May 13 and 14 in Louisville, KY.
