What’s your favorite target?

The small apples that grow on the trees along my yard. They average the size of a golf ball. When there’s a good crop I’ll bag and freeze them. That way I have a stash to last me.

Beside squirrels when hunting or Starlings/Sparrows/pigeons etc when pesting I like to shoot acorns off my oak trees, blades of grass, dandelions, weed stems etc. Flys or wasp that land on my target back stop. I also like shooting my know your limits target out at 62 yds.

I like to tie up and hang duraseal targets from tree branches. They hang down about 6' with paracord and you can use the line to check your cant. When hit they dance wildly, it's real easy to see, and you don't have to reset or paint them all the time. The most important thing is that they are quiet. Nobody knows that i'm shooting and I like it that way.

You guys have some beautiful outdoor ranges. I used to love to plink but where I live these days I’m stuck to shooting in my basement. I’m fortunate to have 46’. I’m mostly interested in target rifles so seeing how well I can group on the standard 10 meter air rifle target is the mainstay of my shooting. I’m currently trying to get better at shooting offhand and that looks like it will keep me busy for life!

If you are shooting the small flippers at 55 yards, with a pistol, I'm just going to sit here and resent you. ;-)Cans for springers and steel for PCPs.
20 yards for pistols.

55 yards for rifles and pistols. Paint the steel with white spray paint and let dry. Orange paint for the bullseyes. They really pop with two coats of paint. Paper targets only zeroing.
I can hit the cans with my LP400 with about eight inches of hold over when the wind cooperates.
