Print one/each on just regular paper. Then go to your local copier machine and make hundreds. No, they're not regulation paper that way, but for practice they're just fine. You'll know whether you're shooting 80's or 90's. Shoot the ones you've already shot as Rimfire, with your centerfire gun. Save a branch, save a tree, save some dough.
Those without target backings should go to your local appliance store. You'll be able to grab refrigerator, washer and dryer boxes. Cut the cardboard to fit your clubs target stands. If they're just wood stands, then use heavy staples to attach them to the stand. Else, your club should have some stands that you can slide the cardboard in from the top/sides... Whatever. It's not rocket science.
I get roll-ends from the local newpaper publisher. Two feet wide. Once stapled up at 25yds, I put a bullet hole in the center. Then I aim for that hole. Again. Again. If you changed that, and aim for the last hole made, again, again, you'll learn if you are flinching consistantly in one direction or not. (just an old trick I stumbled upon) Your POI will show a pattern.
Wayne02.. SlowFire sighting. I raise above the bull then drop to it, with red dot or with iron sights. That's just me. I feel comfortable settling to a 'rest/targeted' position. There's this little rough spot in the movement of my shoulder. I drop to just below that. You can see, how a person aquires the sights/target may vary quite a lot to shooters. You'll have to find what works for you. Many RO's will frown on raising above the bull/target. Try this. With an unloaded weapon, set your stance, gun in hand but on the bench. Close your eyes. Lift to aquire target with your sights. Open your eyes. If the sights aren't close, adjust your stance until it is. Try again until you've found a stance that gets you close, or perfect. You'll find that your drop or lift adjustment will be minimal. Practice the steps to get to that point and you should find that all your scores will improve. Recovery from recoil to get back on target will be more consistant.
