Shooting Pattern Results

gabby · Post by **gabby** » Tue Mar 27, 2007 9:46 am

Not to long ago I stumbled on a pie chart on a forum (maybe here) that I would like to send to my shooting buddies.
It was a 9 segment chart showing where you will shoot (off of bullseye) if you do certain things.
Can anyone put the link in this post?
It would helpful for all of us.

Here "tis:

This site has all kinds of free targets, even a correction chart for the LEFT handed shooter...

Bullseye, maybe this should be a "sticky?"

Cheers!

Thanks Toy!

I had been to your very useful section, but apparently just "blew right by" the section on Targets!

Cheers!

Perhaps it's just my opinion...
the assortment of Internet-available "targets" is immense...

The Ink/toner to print targets-at-home is a LOT-More than
a package of targets will cost... granted, a "One-Of" excepted.

most any dot, grid or "+" will serve to place your Cross-Hairs
or front-post...
Our range has a LOT-of-Rules... and one is that 'targets' are
to be simple grids, dots and circles... ie. No "cartoons',
photos or other Polit-emotional images...
(I guess some got carried away in years past...)

I've (Evolved/ migrated/ retreated) to using a simple 1" black-dot
stickie on a piece of white paper... it's 1-MoA at 100yds
and serves as a group-size for 35&50yds... and a package of them
stays in my RangeBag easily... the contrast is good.

The diagnostic/sight-in targets can be helpful... but it's the information
that is helpful... not to have the information to shoot-holes into
and then try to read-between-the-holes...

the 'reading list' was not intended to be an exhaustive collection of
links to any/all information... but to be some initial suggestions to
those that are looking for a start... if you notice Dead-Links or
have something "new"... PM-me and I'll try to edit-it into the list.

Who needs targets when paper plates and orange stickies are so cheap! Not to mention Bullseye's grocery sack targets!

Ditto blindpig. 1" orange stickies, paper plates, and stapler. Time was when I could keep most all in orange at 30 feet or so. Sadly no more with iron sights but maybe now with my VQ sear, Marvel trigger, and some optics.....

Ok, since everyone loves the paper bag trick so well here's another one...

Take some paper plates and use one of those brightly colored bingo markers to imprint your dot. They usually cost around a $1 and you can paint on a lot of target dots with one bottle.
