| Where do your guys buy cardboard IDPA targets? Looking for 50 or 100, about $0.34 is the best I can find. |

At work we pay to have a cardboard dumpster emptied...when one of the grunts are cutting cardboard to fit in the dumpster we have some cut up for target backers, I take a stack of those home and use a shot up IDPA from the range as a template with a sharpie and a sheet rock knife....about 2 minutes each , a 1/4 " off exact doesn't matter to me.
Most places pay to have cardboard taken away...most likely would be happy to give you some. |

Then use a lightweight wooden stencil / template and just cut them out real quickly. Some cardboard dumpsters and tape and you'll be good to go all season. Cheers! -JC |

For that price, are you sure they are cardboard and not paper? I know when I was looking the cheapest I could find for cardboard was just under a buck, so I make my own, well actually my youngins make them.
You actually need two targets to make your own, my daughter just made ten of them for me a couple minutes ago. I am using IPSC targets, almost the same as IDPA, but the A zone is a rectangle, not a circle.
