I just picked up a AR500 steel target. Looking forward to shooting it but have never shot at steel and am concerned about safety. What I'm worried about is the heads of the carriage bolts sitting on the front face of the plate creating a surface that is not uniformly flat. This is probably a non-issue right? What do you all think?

I finally took my plate out and shot it. Two of us hammered it with our AR-15s at 225 yards. Went great! No damage to the plate after approx 150 - 200 rounds other than a couple insignificant chips on the edge. Shooting at steel is fun. Below are some pictures for anyone interested.
