I like the 4 up. That would be a good target for my Savage 17 HMR.
Here is the set up I use at the range. Foam core poster board from Walmart. Clip it to some chicken wire and you are good to go.
Targets stay on in the wind pretty well to.
Heading to range this weekend to put some holes in them.
I have 8 different loads 4 shots each to try.


Save your nickels! It's campaign time and all of those signs on the honeycomb plastic work great as target backing!!

Yep Coroplast wold work good for that. At least it would be worth something then. The names on most aren't worth the sign material it is printed on.

You guys would get a chuckle out of my 200yd Target Backer.

I have a 8' x 8', 2x4 frame. To that I hang two full sheets of plywood. On the plywood I staple on that plastic picnic table covering, overlapped to cover the full target backer surface. With a 2" black circle, dead center, it's hard to miss the backer, not impossible, just hard.

For pasters, I buy Office Depot, 3/4" round white pricing, peel & stick'em-on tags, and Bingo, we're off and running..

I was considering following your lead on this, Tim, using an old shower curtain. I replace mine once a year. Nice thing is, there is already grommets on the top run.

Looks like this has been down loaded a few times. Hope it works as well for those of you as it does me.

Hello All.
I hope everyone had a great Christmas. Yes I said Christmas.
Here is the latest Version of the Target. I don't know if I will ever perfect it but it keeps getting better. Save these to flash drive, take to nearest print and copy store and have them printed for around a dime each. Cheap targets.

Nice target. I made something similar in excel on my puter, but I must say, I like yours better. I saved it for future printing and use.
