Glenn:
Please excuse my response if I appear to be critical or I missed your point which I know was an attempt to be helpful. But, I’ve built and pasted virtually all the paper targets that are used by muzzleloaders and cartridge rifle shooters over the years. Your reference to the Pistoleer for the SR 3 (300 yard target) is correct except for one small point. Those are two piece targets. An SR-3C (300 yard repair center) must be pasted over an SR target face (200 yard full face target) to make a 300 yard target. And, I’ve been doing this for many, many years as no one makes a one piece full face 300 yard target face any more. Happy New Year!

Re: Long range paper target configuration
Skipper,
You can just use the SR3C center on a plain piece of cardboard or paper
No Need to paste it over an SR . Also, use a SRC center on cardboard for 200yds practice/load development
I do that all the time

If all you prefer is to punch paper for load development, sure. My comment was directed at those who want to find/use an entire 300 yard target.

Re: Long range paper target configuration
I think the only thing out there is a two piece to get a full sized sheet and take it to staples and have them make a full sized one sheet copy.
But I got some SR 3 here some time back, but all I see now is two piece but it will make a full target.

Re: Long range paper target configuration
Actually the concept of using the SR target for 300yds by placing a SR3C center
is that on usual OTC HiPower, we start on the 200 yds line, shoot up the target in Standing and 200yds sitting rapid, (hopefully) in the center
and then when we move back to 300, SR3C centers are pasted and we proceed with 300yds prone rapid.
I have done that for load development/practice,etc with my BPCR rifles. Shoot some at 200, then place a SR3C center and
shoot from 300.
BTW, a person can also obtain "600 yds reduced to 300 or to 200yds centers for scaled down shorter range matches or practice.
Surprising how challenging the 600 reduced targets can be.

Especially with a 22 at 200 yards.

Re: Long range paper target configuration
Kenny,
Yup, we shoot the 22 caliber class in Schuetzen at 200yds, both bench and offhand.
The Schuetzen target "center(25 ring) is 1.5" diameter and the 24 ring is 3" . definitely a challenge
to approach a perfect 10 shot / 250 score. especially if you have a high "center" number of shots-
"center, you have to have the bullet hole center past the 25 ring line.

Re: Long range paper target configuration
We have been shooting the reduced 300 and 600 yard targets at 200 yards with .22 for years. We have the national championship using these targets. Great fun and great test of marksman, ammo and rifle. Info about our national match is on the announcements page if this forum.

Re: Long range paper target configuration
No problem. I understood the OP wanting something for practice at 300yd, and the center should be fine.Skipper wrote: ↑Sat Jan 02, 2021 10:31 am Glenn:

If one wants to add more "paper" as their groups are outside the repair-center, we have a roll of 48" wide butcher-block paper in the target shed and the shooter just cuts off an ~square piece to staple up before putting the repair-center in the middle of it. Easy enough to spot your misses and adjust off of same.
For 200yd tesing/practice I put up four (4) of the red Schuetzen 25-ring targets 2-over-2. Plenty of targets to shoot at. If I'm doing a lot of testing I'll use both target stands (ours are 48" square) and put up more targets on the adjoining stand. Personally, I find the red side of the Schuetzen 25-ring easier to spot bullet holes in then the black side.

Re: Long range paper target configuration
Speaking about "more" paper on the target, it’s not too hard to find!
I have 2 PVC pipe free-standing target frames that I take to the range. Found a 36” x 100 yds roll of “builder’s paper” at Home Depot a few years ago. Price was under US $25.00. Works very well except I found the light brown color too much of contrast at times. On a whim one day I stopped at the local Office Depot and found a roll 36” X 50 yds. (or is it 60?) white paper that works better for my eyesight. Check your local Home Depot, Lowes, building supplier, Office depot/Office Max, stationery store, etc., they just might have what’s needed.
