CHEAP, plentiful targets 🎯 at Walmart, NOT in Sporting Goods

I get rolls of the 3in stickers from work, and than apply the labeling stickers from Wallie-world. Really good for a big bore target because 3in is a reasonable kill zone for deer, dot is the size of a penny. Will have to try the reinforcement lables now that I've got a .25 cal for a smaller aiming point.

I took a 4" gong and drilled a 3/8" hole in the center.. (that was tough drilling). I mounted it to a board and hung a metal junction cover plate behind it. I made legs to stand the board. It makes one sound when the pellet hits the gong and a nice ring when the pellet passes through the hole to hit the cover plate.
I love targets that I don't have to keep changing. ;)
 
These are reasonably priced...

Half the colors won't s show well in some conditions or backgrounds. I just buy 1000 count rolls permanent red dot stickers. Red shows great under all conditions. I find 0.5, 0.75 and 1.00" covers all my needs. I primarily shoot airguns at paper at 25 and 50 yards. I adjust the size of the dots to the distance and sighting system of the rifles. I also find decreasing magnification to shrink the aiming point works well. It gives me a smaller POA and reduces purpose tremor.

Agreed, but most show up well enough on cardboard backing with proper lighting.

I use the colored dots for casual shooting. Will look for those rolls that you mentioned.

Most of the time I draw a target grid on (cereal box) cardboard using a rafter-square and Sharpie marker. Takes less than a minute to draw and proves a useful reference for my tuning notes.

This would also give a good reference for “how many clicks to get to where I aimed”

And you could easily change the grid size. 👍

Some paper, sharpie , and any imagination makes a good target .😉
