Targets for Back Yard Plinking..
« on: August 26, 2009, 12:37:57 PM »
Just now getting around to buying some more targets for my back yard. The last batch I got from Steelplinkers are fantastic metal targets. Just have to buy a few more from Ben and I should be set..:) I always need something new to shoot at. Here are some pics of the targets I have set up. Still have a couple that I need to put up and order some more..:) Never will have enough but I am working hard on it..:)

Gene Thats a fine group of targets you got there. There aint nothing like a back yard range, but I think you took it to a whole new level. How do decide which one to shoot at?? Skip

Just lay down in the prone position and start with the grass. Should save you some mowing time.

couple of small pvc stands holding cardboard/paper targets...  As well as some .22 cal spinner type targets out, one at 17 yds  and one down at 25 yds...  For random range, I took a broken marine vhf antenna element and bent it to hold some 99 cent spoons from wally world...  They are fun  :)

My targets are at different ranges. From 25 yards out to 50 yards from where I shoot. Makes for quite a challenge for me. I put the paper targets at different ranges so I can see where my shots are placed when sighting in my guns.

Yep.....definitely a target-rich environment.....I can only hope I have that kind of space and distance to shoot.  Maybe time to move to some rural area......
