Paper shooters anyone? I like shooting paper, but range prices

I bought one IDPA target from my local gun shop and trace it on large sheets of cardboard and cut them out. I get the cardboard free from the local grocery store.

All you need is a slice of printer paper and a black / red marker. Fucking hell "paper quality" it's all the same

When I was still poorfag, I bought a pack of paper plates and a sharpie and drew a 1 diameter circle in the center of the plate. Then i stapled it to a yard sign that had been thrown out

works out to about $28 for 25 shipped, grab a roll of tape and they last a long time

Most every pistol drill in existance was designed for/adapted to the USPSA metric, you can run drills or just shoot groups with a generous backstop, got all your bases covered.

Why would you buy an IDPA target instead of actually shooting IDPA/IPSC/2 Gun/3 Gun? The only time I ever rent time at a range is to sight optics or function test. I find it dry, boring and controlled.

I wish I lived in a gun friendly state and not nj. I have to drive to the range pray I don't get pulled over by a cop, and then pay $1.50 a target, but man shooting is just to fun to not do it.

>>33217137
There is such a thing as target shooting. That said, an IDPA/IPSC target is too large to be challenging for pure accuracy.

>>33217162
As if IDPA is any better. Have fun with your arbitrary failure to do right.

>>33217216
I should've clarified they both suck.
They've tried so hard to exclude the 1911 from production classes without specifically saying "1911" that production or SSP is literally now just "glock, the division"

>>33217216
>That said, an IDPA/IPSC target is too large to be challenging for pure accuracy.

Just grab a sharpie and draw a black dot in the center of the alpha, or stick a piece of tape on it, a quick dollop of spray paint, etc - you can now farm all the accuracy you want with a healthy backstop to track errant rounds.

This. Literally throwing money in the trash otherwise.

that would actually be a pretty neat-o dot torture drill to run

This is what we use in the killhouse.
They're cheap and fun.

Paper quality matters if you're not shooting with a cardboard backer, thin shit tears horribly and it's hard to accurately mark hits. There's a reason your NRA bullseye and combat targets are basically cardstock.

However, use scrap cardboard as a target backer and you can use copy paper with no issue.

I print my targets out from online (or PDF's I've found online), I've got everything from officially-sized targets to fuckaround ones. I print them on the cheapest copy paper I can find.

For mid-range rifle (400-700yd) I use various sizes of paper plate with either a paster or just sharpie in the middle. Use the cheapshit ones at like Dollar Tree, they biodegrade in a matter of weeks and if you use random sticks or cheap wood like firring strips you have fully disposable, fully biodegradable everything.

>>33217266
I carry DA/SA and hate that both require you to decock, even if you have a manual safety. Clearly meant to promote striker guns.

>>33217269
But why spend the effort or money on an IDPA cutout when scrap cardboard does the job. Just odd.

>>33217312
Shoot that bitch

>>33217280
That's fucking genius.

>>33217321
I'd rather pay the pocket change than deal with making my own.

25 USPSA targets and a roll of tape last like half a year as long as you don't cut them in half with bird shot, $28 for half a year of high quality shooting is a non-issue for me.

I think it's pretty clever how you do your own on the cheap though.

Anyone else like those midsize targets they are like 12,18

>>33216977
I just print shit at work and tape them to boxes filled with rocks.

>>33217280
I'm stealing this idea. Wife spends enough god damn money there as it is, might as well ger a target out of it.

anyone try these things? i think they might be to small or maybe i just suck

Not a fan of targets that emphasis seeing impacts as a hard focus on the target is bad form and I don't like being encouraged to break my follow through and peek after every shot.

NRA range sells bullseyes for 15¢ a piece, I don't find that that breaks the bank.

>>33216977
I shoot cheap 9" paper plates. 9" is a center mass shot. 5" plates are head shot sized. A pack of 100 plates is like $2 at the grocery store.

Anybody have the picture of the correction target, but instead of "too much trigger finger" or "heeling" it has stuff like "masturbaitor" and "furry"?

I shoot pic related when I'm going for accuracy.

just don't do this to them (keep up with the taping) or birdshot them point blank and you can get around 1,000 rounds per target.

>shoot at local outdoor range run by the Game and Fish department
>targets are 15 cents and it's 7 bucks for a whole day of range fun
