Target ideas

Whats your target....
I have always gone to the simplest. So now I just use for all my shooting a simple Horizontal line with a simple verticle line that starts at the horizontal going up . I use a white piece of paper and use what ever DARK colored marker or crayon handy. LIne thickness varries with distance to target. If I cannot see it I just add thickness at the range... but after a couple hundred you get the hang of that.....

I doubt my older eyes could use line targets without a scope. When I'm measuring group sizes for load testing, I use my own targets made from a 7x7 square of 1/4" graph paper run through the copier. The 1" lines are highlighted, I make a 1" circle in the center, and the outer 1" is solid black. For other shooting, I just use the downloaded targets available from the Gunloads Home Page. If you can't find what you're looking for there, you'll just have to get creative.

Tried that cardboeard painted a bright color (yellow, orange, white) worked really good.
Wrap Cardboard with Shrink wrap and paint it Black. Shoot it and see where you hit.

For pistol and 100 yard Highpower rifle, I use NRA B-8C 25 yard timed and rapidfire centers. They are almost the same size as the SR-1 and you can buy 500 fo them from National Target Company at about $.04 each.

My favorite targets for sighting in a 22 or slug gun is a plain old paper plate. I like to set them at 30 yards, shoot them, and then aim at the bullet hole. It seems to realy help when I'm sighting in a new scope for someone.

In our state you are not allowed to use anything but a shotgun or a bow for deer hunting.
