Default All Weather Targets

I'm looking for a target that I can leave out year round. I would like to shoot occassionally without the hassle of taking out my blocks and bringing them in each time. I don't shoot heavily except prior to hunting season. Any recommendations on good targets? 3D targets are out. Thanks.

My Block 4x4 has been outside since last March and is holding up just fine.

Why are 3ds out? They cost about the same as any good layed foam targets these days and make you a much better shot IMO being able toset them up and shoot hunting sinarios and angles on vitals. If ya think about the 3D go with a reinhart other than that i dunno. WCL

The best I've used is the Morrells Outdoor Range Target. (The "redneck-ghetto" recycled lawn mower portable stand isn't availble in stores though...)
