I have AR500 steel IPSC targets on a 30 degree angle. They are 3/8 in. thick and I have shot them from as close as 6 feet (testing) with both 5.56 and 7.62x51 and they stand up perfectly to the abuse.
If you are using mild steel instead of AR500 steel, it will get pockmarked no matter how thick it is.
