So, I have too much time on my hands.....
I wanted to shoot something other than a rectangular piece of paper. Having worked the USPSA nationals last summer (volunteer) I thought I might like those cardboard targets they use. Looked at the Target Barn website, more than I wanted to spend. I found a used one at the range and traced it out on plywood. Then cut out a 8" circle for the "A" zone, so I could staple a piece of cardboard on to the back. I used whatever was in the recycle bin. (Pizza boxes, motor oil boxes etc.) I wanted to be able to shoot alot, but not waste the plywood at the range. This way, I can get some of that cardboard colored tape and shoot many rounds without having to constantly buy new ply. Keeps the recycle bin empty too. I made several singles, some doubles with "No shoots" and a "Presidente" I left at the range along with a couple of doubles. Very easy to make. I already had the paint. Shot my P22 and my Kimbers, multiple shots on multiple targets was VERY FUN!
