mjl Posted January 10, 2017 Share Posted January 10, 2017 Take a look at Shooters Connection : http://www.shootersconnectionstore.com/Targets-C334.aspx They are great supporters of the sport and their price is 62.50/100 (even cheaper in bulk) and their shipping rates are not inflated. Also they will just about appear on your doorstep concurrent with you hanging up the phone. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
9x45 Posted January 10, 2017 Share Posted January 10, 2017 Save big $$$ and buy used USPSA targets. Not all holes are taped, but they are good for at least 3 more stages. Pre-shot 2 Alpha slightly higher... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Swanny10 Posted January 10, 2017 Share Posted January 10, 2017 Ah. A little slow on the up take this morning. I figured he was getting them from his local club. Mine shoots them until they are already "bio-degraded". Better for the environment I guess. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CrashDodson Posted January 10, 2017 Share Posted January 10, 2017 The shooters connection discounts for bulk is the cheapest I have found shipped to texas. I tried every site in this thread. Action target has pre-made hard cover targets which is worth it I think to not have to buy and paint hard cover. If you order over 300lbs from action target...which isnt that many targets evidently it ships by freight and is much cheaper than UPS. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bsand Posted January 10, 2017 Share Posted January 10, 2017 And you are buying these where?I "dumpster dive" for clean no shoots at my club. Not really dumpster diving but I just pick thru them at the end and take out the least shot ones. I've got like 6 clean no shoots from one match.

9x45 Posted January 10, 2017 Share Posted January 10, 2017 Swanny, actually I do get them from one of the clubs I belong to. Usually take home a dozen or so after a match. Small perk for being a match official.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
36873687 Posted January 10, 2017 Share Posted January 10, 2017 Shooters connection but the shipping is brutal.i help set up an tear down at my range an they give me the targets after, I'll never have to buy targets again. Storing them all is pain Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DKnoch Posted January 10, 2017 Share Posted January 10, 2017 I make my own from big pieces of cardboard. I also do as written above when possible, except most of my local matches don't give out used ones for helping unless you ask and then you get one or two. I use those as templates usually for blank cardboard anyhow and try to be somewhat close on A and C perfDaniel K Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Swanny10 Posted January 10, 2017 Share Posted January 10, 2017 I've cut my own before as well. But I just cut them A/C and don't worry about the perfs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JHOWARD Posted January 10, 2017 Share Posted January 10, 2017 Yeah, during tear down, grab the no-shoots. They're generally not too torn up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

9x45 Posted January 11, 2017 Share Posted January 11, 2017 Pat, the USPSA match at this club only has about 40, or so. The other USPSA match I go to runs the targets until they go thru 2 rolls of tape each.... You know, $12 of tape of tape for a $1 target. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

teros135 Posted January 11, 2017 Share Posted January 11, 2017 Shooters Conection has them for $3 per roll of 1000. Frankly, I can't figure out why we're looking to save pennies on cardboard targets and pasters when we shoot reloaded 9mm at 12.5 cents per round or factory at 24 cents - 4 rounds of that and you have the cost of a target, 12 rounds equals a roll of pasters. Not to mention the cost of the equipment! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Delta66 Posted January 11, 2017 Share Posted January 11, 2017 I cut my own for practice. Just grab a target from a match to use as a template and you're set. Outline the zones with light pencil and it almost looks like a perforation from a distance. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I guess I like to skimp on the small stuff so I don't have to on other things. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BeerBaron Posted February 24, 2017 Share Posted February 24, 2017 Thank the shooting gods my club buys the targets and patches in bulk and just gives them to members. I would hate having to buy, ship and store targets. I just grab what I need at the club. it's one of the things I pay my membership for. it is a private club with their own range though, not a public range or commercial range. I don't know why more clubs don't do it that way? It's so much easier for a club of a couple hundred people to buy in bulk for their members rather than every man for himself buying a 100lb stack of targets a few times a year. ok if they don't want to provide them free to members at least buy in bulk and on-sell at cost to members. thinking more about this I think actually my full years membership cost is 100% offset by the saving on targets. Not having ever had to buy them I had no idea what they cost. at $1 each + pasters I'm in front. bonus. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rowdyb Posted February 24, 2017 Share Posted February 24, 2017 my club puts all the decent used targets after matches in the club house in a "free" section. they also sell targets to members, $1 each for new idpa or uspsa targets. i normally can stretch my own target supply pretty well by using the match targets. we only have one uspsa match a month though, so they don't really generate a lot of targets for me to scoop up.

Prov1x Posted February 24, 2017 Share Posted February 24, 2017 letargets or action targets is the cheapest place I have found if you only order a couple of hundred at a time. Shipping is cheaper and they ship fast as well! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
