The hanging targets usually have short chains so they don't get any kind of a pendulum swing going that would make you wait to shoot. The weight of the target you describe will keep it in place I would think for any kind of rapid fire you want to put on it. I don't imagine the 9mm will move it more than a very little and with the 357 the plate will probably settle back before you overcome the recoil. I have shot a lot of steel so take this to the bank: there will be splatter that comes back on you if you get closer than about 15 yards so absolutely everyone including nonshooters who are near the action need eye protection with side shields. Steel shooting is great fun but you need to be smart about it.Enjoy
