Thats exactly what I am currently useing now, and I agree that the rolls from ebay/amazon are very economical and work well.
Perhaps even cheaper than making my own??
I never seem to follow through with the home made targets, because I am unsure about how to add "scoreing circles", on the home-made targets.
Probably more trouble than its worth.
Thanks.

Splatterburst. I was wrong on the quantity, you get 10 Pages of 62 for a total of 620. $9.99. Still a lot of targets!

Reviews on other brands said that the adhesive didn't work well. These stick great on paper, Pizza boxes etc.

MUCH cheaper to buy them now. I used to make my own for 100y targets from bright paper inside a hot lamination pouch then using a plexiglass mask, spray painted it black, the plexiglass mask was just three rings and the bull.

They worked fine but the self adhesive 3" circles are my fav to buy now.

yes when you figure the time to make also . I still make the 24 x 30 poster board but use it to sight in a scope @ xx distance . Sighting in a .177 @ 50 yards , much easier on a 24 x 30 in the wind . black spray paint also repairs the board (not the holes but the splat )

Well the 3" ones i got from China,,,, DO NOT WORK AT ALL
So have ordered the same brand i have shot for a while, but are actually not easy to find in EU ville, and especially the 2" ones i prefer.
Trying to make something work with ALI seller of the 3" ones, but really he is just playing with me hoping i just write off my investment.
Have sent hin excellent picture where you can see no splatter on his targets, and he request a video too.

I think so too, and both i and my friend are skilled painters so we can quickly whip something up with a rattle can..

BTW above pic, for the PPL here also following my venture with the epic airguns Two, Those 2 targets are shot at 86 M in not favorable winds.
So i think there is cause for optimism with the new barrel in the Two.

I've done the DIY Rossi method on 11"x17" sheets of fluorescent paper for shooting at distance.
It works well but is time consuming. I usually make 2-4 sheets at a time and then store them weighted face down to avoid curling.
I bought a quadrant target a while back and now I cut pieces and place them on the pieces so I really know where I hit.

I'm done with shoot to see (splatter) targets. They make a mess and its hard to see POI to measure with calipers. I will be using only Target Spots as soon as I'm done with my supply of "Shoot to see" targets. The Target Spots are easier for me to see the POI to measure and they don't make as much of a mess in my diy pellet catcher 🎯. Just my .01 cent;)
