nitram Posted October 25, 2011 Share Posted October 25, 2011 Just wondering if it is OK to mix paper target on a stage? Specifically, I want to designate one type as pistol targets and another as rifle so as to make it easier for the shooter to distinguish them. I noticed in the Nationals MG stage design illustrate drawing with mixed targets (typically classic for rifle and metric for handgun). However, I haven't found any specific rules change that would OK this. Help? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RiggerJJ Posted October 25, 2011 Share Posted October 25, 2011 Why not let presentation, distance and placement in the stage distinguish which gun to use? Give the shooter a choice! .jj Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bryan 45 Posted October 25, 2011 Share Posted October 25, 2011 (edited) Our local matches mix paper- but we use full size targets w/ heads for pistol and 1/2 size targets w/ heads for rifle. It's very easy to distinguish between the rifle and pistol targets this way, and a little more of a challenge on the rifle targets using the 1/2 size. Our local clubs have small bays and there isn't enough room to stretch out the targets to let locations dictate which gun is used to engage them.

J.Schmitt Posted October 26, 2011 Share Posted October 26, 2011 We just had a match this past weekend. We cut off the D-zone on the targets. This range did not have the 1/4 size targets. After cutting the D zone for my stage, one of the other stages utilized the disgarded d zone, flpped it over and stapled it on as no shoots for their stage. This worked real well and provided for some unique target presentations we had not used before. Jay Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

springy Posted October 26, 2011 Share Posted October 26, 2011 Re-using the cut off "D"s as an added on no-shoot is evil - and I like evil Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
