Targets made from pellet tins- fun and easy!

"NMshooter"Took a page out of Ted's videos and made up some targets out of used tins. Took a little over an hour to make all twelve. Ted has two videos on this, very education. Had a lot of fun making these and hope to have some more fun blasting theses things tomorrow

Neat job NMshooter. If you planning to shoot these at multiple distances then I would suggest color coding them especially for the ones 50 yards and beyond. I got some steel mil dot targets made and painted them white and put them out from 50 yards to 150 yards at intervals of 10 yards each. The problem I faced was it becomes difficult to understand the exact range for holdover since at that distance they mostly look the same size. E.g. Couldn't differentiate between the one I placed at 70 yards and 90 yards. 

​ Learnt from that and then coded them by painting them in different colors. Now I look through the scope and I know the one I painted orange is exactly at 120 yards and I can holdover accurately. Makes the shooting much more fun and the targets because of their colors can be found easily in the shrub.
