Trying to find a target

[taylorce1]

I've been watching a lot of F-Class shooter videos and I've noticed this target. Most of the time they are using this during seating depth testing. It looks like a printable target, and I'd like to use it or something similar for load development.

Never seen it--but if they are routinely drilling one small hole at 300 to 1000 yds that would be one competition I'd be afraid to enter.

Here is a better pic.

Found it through a lot of help. It's Shot Marker load development target.

Looks like the same idea as a benchrest target, an aiming point with offset impact area so you don't fray out your aiming point.

See also "thermometer target" with an aiming point at the bottom of the paper and a graduated "stem" going up the paper. If you have trajectory figures, you can use it to get a rough zero for longer ranges. Here is one calibrated for .30-06.

The shooters I was watching were using it for powder charge ladder testing and bullet seating depth at 100 yards. I've been using 100 yard benchrest targets, but I like the aiming points on this better.

I make my own targets using PowerPoint and print them on 80-lb paper so the holes don't rip out.

For my centerfires, I use a 2-inch crosshair with a 1-inch diagonal diamond with the bottom tip on the aimpoint and the upper tip over the vertical bar.
I can get 12 targets on one 8 1/2 inch paper.

For .22LRs I use 1/2 inch diamonds and 1-inch crosshairs so I can get 20 targets per pages. That's two boxes of ammo. I shoot at 50 and 100 yards.

I prefer to color the inside of the diamonds light yellow or light orange because I can see them better.
I try to have the bullets land inside the diamond so I don't mess up my aim point.
