I need a computer savvy person to make a printable target for a new game.

[Bat Rastard]

My design is 5, 7" horizontal lines intersecting 5, 7" vertical lines. The lines are black, and 1/4" wide. At the intersections, a circle the size of a dime.
The game is " Can you get to $2.50?"
One shot at each dime.

I lack the Computer skills to make the target, but surely one of you has those skills.

Thanks in advance.

Looks interesting.

What is the distance between the lines?

[blackngold]

5 lines 7" apart will give you a 28" grid. How big is this target?

[Bat Rastard]

The lines would be 1" apart. It would fit on a regular sheet of paper.
I am not sure what would be best for the circles to be solid black, or white in the middle.

The game is to be played at 100 yards.

That shold be straightforward in Power Point or any application that lets one draw.

Alternatively, one could draw rhe target woth a felt tip marker and then scan and share with others so they can share.

This may be getting close to what you want.

The Box O' Truth guy did a game with quarters. He just put some real quarters on a sheet of paper and photocopied them.
You could do the same with dimes.

Thanks, that's mighty close. I will try shooting that tomorrow.
I am afraid I will need the 1/4" lines to be able to see them with my scope. It's a 3x9. I don't have 3x9 eyes anymore.

A black felt tip marker and ruler should get close to the width you need.

b&g, you are awesome! did you make that?
I am rangebound!

I used AutoCAD and exported it to PDF. No biggie

Show us the results

I scored $1.00.

Now for the excuses:
It was windy.
I am in the midst of load development, and 4 different powder charges were in play.

I really like the concept of this game, but I think we need a rev2 of the target.
The 1/4 inch lines eat up 6.5 bullets. If the lines were reduced to 1/8" That would make it easier through the spotting scope.
Also, if the "dimes" were just 1/16" out lines with white centers would net the same gains.
It would also greatly reduce ink usage.
Thanks again B&G

The challenge is out there, current high score $1.00 GAME ON!

Rev 2

Going to be a while before I get to the range. I will give it a try. Looks fun.


With cross hairs, although I dont know if you would be able to see them @100yds

[Bat Rastard]

I can't see the "dimes" at 100, but I can lay my crosshairs over the grid.

Rev 2 & 3 look great. Thanks again!

I am going to load some ammo and try to make another run to the range.
