Hi folks,
We in Cornwall are suffering a severe lack of TR shooting due to Landmarc 'difficulties'. 4 days until December wtfwtf
I was wondering if any forumer could give me the dimensions of the standard NRA 300, 500, 600, targets for use at 100yds please? I will try to get printed locally.
Does anyone know if this proportionally reduced target is a standard target produced by McQueens or through the NRA?
I'm hoping I can arrange a bit more shooting than we have been offered by using a 100yd range.
Thanks for help
JohnG :cornwall:

You may be able to buy the targets from the firm that print them for the NRA (McQueens) ... they're not cheap BUT will probably be a more cost effective way to get the correct targets you require
PLAN B would be to find a similar reduced target on the US NRA site & print it off at home

I'm not sure exactly the target you are looking for, but,you might want to try the "Scatt Professional" software.
http://www.scatt.com/downloads/14/downloads/
Its a free download and you can use it to print scaled targets (you don't need the Scatt hardware to run the software)
I am using it to scale 10m Air targets to 8m for shooting in my garage, but there are a number of "ICFRA TR UK Form" and "Sniper" targets listed that might fit
[Install the software on windows pc, then Tools menu and Print targets, choose your target and set the scale]

The dimensions are in the Bisley Bible, available online from the NRA website.
The NRA 100 yard target available in the Range office is prepared on a photocopier onto A4 paper, reduced from a printed 200 yd target.

Personally I recommend splashing out your hard earned cash on this piece of software

The cost of a couple of pints its bloody good piece of software.
