You know, I've never practiced with a poster like that one, but I'd be terribly tempted to give in to my inner Keanu and just go "shoot the hostage!" while blasting away. ;-)"
In the interest of getting full use from expensive targets the hostage usually becomes a bad gal before the shooting is done.
I like the small target the best.
It's on 8x11 inch paper, making the head about 1 3/4 inch.
It's a good challenge from about 5 yards. It's about like shooting the full size target from 20 yards.
The usual scenario is the hostage was on the way to buy you a new SUV, so you have a vested interest in not hitting her.
Each shot is a "win" but you still have to empty the magazine without hitting the hostage or missing the BG or you lose.
A couple weeks ago I was on a roll, not missing a shot with 2 magazines, with of all guns a Polish P-64 9x18.
I got a SUV, new pickup, P51 Mustang, Spitfire, Bell 407, Thompson, UZI, Barret 50 cal, Browning 30cal MG, 50cal MG, a million bucks and a million sent to the Fort Worth animal shelter.
The hostage was very rich
