These are the first two batches. I'll upload the rest when the computers decide to play nice.

I made the red targets for a member here, but I don't recall who.

These targets are drawn in powerpoint. When the background grid is turned on, a grid of lines with reasonably precise spacing can be drawn. Some of these are experimental, such as the ones with the gray outer ring, which gives enough contrast to see through pistol sights.

I have to fiddle with the links to make sure I have all of the images loaded, there should be 24 unique targets. I will email the file to team members that are interested.

I'm guessing Power Point.

Very nice.

Everyone that wants a copy of the powerpoint file needs to send an email address so I can send it to multiple persons with one email.

I use something similar except instead of making them up in PowerPoint and printing them, I use these Birchwood Casey target spots:

http://www.brownells.com/.aspx/pid=27118/sku=167-339-010/Product/1-Orange-Target-Spots-360-pak

I basically use the free scope targets sheets my club supplies that have the 1" vertical/horizontal lines on them and stick in as many spots as I need. I find that based on the size of the sheet, the optimal number is about 9 spots which is usually more than I need.

The spots are reasonably priced i.e. $5.99/batch of 360 which comes out to less than 2 cents per spot which I think is competitive with the printed sheets since the cost there is the ink which is pretty steep nowadays. The additional positive things about the spots is that they give a clean edge when you hit it and you have the flexibility of only putting in the number you need and of course reduce the number of targets you have to staple up.
