Well shoot...

Quit buying those expensive stick on targets. I buy the cheap sight in targets that have many zero points.
I use the ones with a big + in the middle & little +s around the center. Be sure to get the ones in orange or white background because if you can see your results from the shooting bench you don't have to keep walking to your target. Targets with a lot of black tend to hide your shots.
Buy ones like these.

Or if you have a printer you can print them out at home.

Oof, that sucks.

I've always liked to use a plain cheap white paper plate and a big sharpie.

Either trace a quarter or free hand a square and color it in. Quick and cheap.

Those shoot-n-see's are nice, but I'm too cheap.

My favorite Shoot-n-See for the 100 yard line.

Ditto. My preferred cheapo option is to buy a roll of that 24" paper used to cover tables and draw a pattern of spaced black or blue circles, dots or crosses with a Sharpie.

White poster board and Chipguard spray paint works almost as well as Shoot-N-Cs. I made a template from a B-27 and another from a 6" saucer and they work fine for casual practice. Actually, any spray paint will do, but then you need to lay down clear coat first before spraying on the target.

I use http://www.mytargets.com and just print what I want on regular 8.5x11 paper.

I print my own targets, too, and use masking tape when I want pasters.

I buy these at Walmart. I save cardboard from various boxes and affix the dots to them. Cheap paper plates work well enough. If I reuse them I cover the holes with masking tape.

I like the ones that have 5-6 bullseye / targets on one page.

I took an excursion into DIY printed targets after my acquisition of an 8.15x46R Wehrmann target rifle. This single shot Mauser was intended for a discipline referred to in German as Wehrsport (see this German language site for more information: http://www.feuerbixler.de/history22.html)

Since my indoor range only allows a maximum distance of roughly 21 yards, I scaled down the original competition targets so they would appear the proper size for that distance (for scale the holes here were made by .319" bullets.)




I did something similar for a head-to-head comparison with my P14, using a scaled British military target:

I use PowerPoint to create my targets,,,
East to use and handy.

Here's my favorite. Created in AutoCad and saved to .pdf for 8.5x11 format.
I generally use the lower right corner of the patch as my POA. Any daylight between the crosshair and the patch means you're not quite on the corner.
Feel free to copy and edit/use at your discretion.

I never cared for the splatter type targets because the impact spot is always bigger than the actual hole, which makes it harder to shoot the next 4 through the same hole.

If I'm shooting paper, I mostly use an old real estate sign with a radiator or condenser box sitting over it. Either staple paper targets or stick orange dot stickers on. Or just shoot a hole in the cardboard, then shoot at the hole.

I use the one in my avatar for sighting in, B-27's for pistol & CQB AR & AK drills, printed targets for Bullseye or pistol sight-in, and the 25 meter M16A1 sight in targets I bought a bunch of years ago, from Sportsman's Guide. I picked up zombie splatter targets for my younger son when he was @9 or 10, to spur his interest in shooting.
I used to use displays from work, but they put the kibosh on that some years ago. He had fun popping .223 sized holes in Miley Cyrus' image blown up to 3' by 3'.
Back when SWMBO and I were dating, her dad bought (what he thought was) one semi full of trade displays and their boxes from 3M. He wanted the boxes for calf hutches. Which he got plenty of, because they kept dropping truckloads off until he called them! Some of the displays ( made of Lexan) had people, full sized, on them. They made good targets until I shot the target areas out. I even made a little "Hogan's Alley", and just grabbed them from the pile which the trucks had thoughtfully deposited right where I shot anyway. One was a woman in a Catwoman-type outfit, and SWMBO shot the heck out of the throaxic region with the light loads made for her to shoot from the Redhawk I had back then.

Lazy! Me too! you should see my target board after a.days shooting, usually i cant pick out which gun did what by the end of the day.

Im also lazy in that ill spend the money for the convenience of the sticky back target, but they do have an advantage over the plain paper targets. All that crap on them makes them fairly rain/fog resistant.
They are more likely to stay on my board then anything but card stock stapled on.
