    High levels of lead. Not looking good for him.

    If that is NOT catchup running down from his head I fear he has spent to much time in a BODY PIERCING studio.

    We knew it was cheap steel when we pulled it from the scrap heap, but figured at 450 yards it would survive. We were wrong.

    I believe the correct method is to weld some good 3/8" plate to the center and a reapplication of paint for Ivan the Red. If not it's a trip to the recycle bin for sure.

    I had always heard that lead could be dangerous, perhaps there is some truth to that old wives tale.

    Do not argue with idiots. They will drag you down to their level and beat you with experience.

    Plastic surgery, as in Bond-O, should do the trick. Tint it red to match.

    Send him back out on the range until you can miss the holes!
    When I think back on all the **** I learned in high school it's a wonder I can think at all ! And then my lack of education hasn't hurt me none I can read the writing on the wall.

    After you fix up the holes, maybe try heating the whole piece to a nice dull red. Then douse it in used motor oil. It might get it hard enough to resist some of those shots. If not it will at least protect the unshot parts from rusting.
