Targets for Highpower Rifle competition
On left is the Long Range target used in Palma, on right is the 500 yard target.
 

We use different targets for different distances in our shooting game.

We have 200 yd, 300 yd, 600 yd and Long Range. The 500 yd is a modified 600 yd. Long Range is used for 800, 900 and 1000 yds. There are reduced versions of the targets for shorter than standard distances, I will not address those now.

All are mounted on a 6 foot by 6 foot frame.
