Birchwood Casey Shoot•N•C 6" Bullseye Paper Shooting Target

When I started reading the reviews I realized that most people were reviewing these as regular targets and apparently had never even shot reactive ones before. So many people were commenting on the fact they splatter when hit, as if they weren’t expecting that. All reactive targets do this, so I would like to compare these against the other reactive targets because that’s really what you wanna know when you buy these. The two biggest points are near the bottom so if you don’t want to bother reading the whole review here they are: These targets resist scratching significantly more than any others reactive target I have tried and they have significantly less glare because of the high matte finish. That’s enough right there for me to choose them over any other target. The first thing is the printing these just seems to be a much higher quality, The lines and letters are extremely sharp. They just simply look better than most of the other splatter targets and I am pretty much used them all. Of course these are small, so get a ruler and spec out a 6” circle so you know what you’re getting. Some people seem surprised at how small they are but these are properly advertised at their actual size. Note that the circle itself, the target that you actually peel off and stick is 6 inches in diameter and not the paper. Some of the other targets fudge the size by giving you the size of the paper backing rather than the actual decal. This is a 6 inch diameter target with a half inch bull’s-eye in the middle. Another thing I like is that the higher scoring rings are more narrow than the lower scoring rings. Most splatter targets have equidistant rings and that’s not how most competition targets are. While the splatters are smaller than on a lot of other targets, the are still easily seen. The pattern of the splatter is tighter and easier to patch over with the dot’s. Some other targets require more than one patch to cover up a bullet hole. Maybe it’s the inks or the contrast but it’s still quite easy to see your hit. So my three biggest problems with splatter targets are one) they’re easily scratched, two) they tend to be glossier and therefore will sometimes throw a lot of glare at a well lit range, and 3) They can make a huge mess as the flecks of color end up coating the rest of the target. These targets do none of these. They are much more scratch resistant instead than any other targets I have used. Even rubbing a nylon brush over the outer ring didn’t scratch it where is it will totally peel off other targets. The finish is very flat matte, and so the glare is reduced significantly over other targets. And you seem to be a mess free. I’ve shot many of them and I don’t get the black specs all over the target board like I do with other targets. These are definitely going to be my first choice go to targets from now on. They’re small so if you want a bigger area you can stick a bunch of them together on a larger target or piece of cardboard. Personally I think you should always shoot at a distance that allows you to maintain about a 4 inch grouping, and if you cannot do that you need to move the target up until you can. And as you improve, move your targets back until your groups start to loosen up again. You’ll be surprised how quickly you’ll will reliably shoot 4 inch groups at 25 and 30 yards with a handgun using this method. These targets are absolutely perfect for that. Sure there’s some cases where you still want a bigger target or the IPSC torso. You can buy those and use these stickers to highlight places on the larger targets. But in general I see the biggest improvement in my students when we maintain accuracy and vary the distance. Rather than maintaining the distance and shooting for an improvement in precision. They do make bigger targets in this brand but they’re a lot more expensive. These packs are a great value for your money as well as an extremely high-quality reactive target. The first picture shows how visible the target is even when it is a glaring indirect sunlight. This is such an improvement over the other brands of splatter targets. The last to show my other favorite splatter targets and you can see by comparing the size of the bullet hole, these are all 9 mm, that the splatters are bigger and may be a little bit messier. These targets are just a lot more consistent.

Now let me start by saying that there is nothing wrong with normal paper targets. I am absolutely fine using normal paper targets on the range. These are simply... BETTER having the ability to easily see where your shots land even 25 yards away is simply incredible. And if you are at an outdoor range, waiting til the line goes cold before you can see your shots is sometimes awfully slow. Now that I have started using these in conjunction with splatterburst targets, I feel as if there is no going back. I know some people may be hesitant because of the price, but I would say they are worth every penny. Just get some of these stickers to go on top of your bullseye to repair the holes and your targets will last a good 50 or more rounds before having to be replaced. I used these Shoot-n-C 6-inch round target to fill in the center where most of my rounds land. It works out amazing. And then anything else, I used some GearOz Splatter Target Stickers, 3" Reactive Paper Targets, that came in a roll of 500. I was able to use about 6 targets for a total of 500 rounds. So about 100 rounds each target! I say thats a win!

These work well and are especially useful for targets put farther away where it is more difficult to see a small hole in moderate light. Some sellers charge exorbitant prices - these weren't cheap but reasonable. I like that you can stick them on paper targets either before or after they've been used. They allow me to double the lifetime of my paper targets. Also lets me refocus on what I'm trying to achieve with a clip by resetting the target - range shooting is useless if you can't see where you've shot.

I recently got into the sport of shooting and have been going to the range every other week to improve my skills on my new revolver (S&W model 64, for the record). I was forever putting up new targets to shoot because I found it difficult to track my progress otherwise. The range I frequent also has a minimum distance for targets of 25 feet which often left me squinting to see if I had hit what I'd been aiming at. On a lark, I decided to pick a five-pack package of these up at Wal-Mart one day. I got the nine-inch version and fell in love. Suddenly my shots were as clear as day and I could plaster over the holes with the included stickers and use the target for another cylinder or two. I also had the option of continuing to reuse the same paper target and just sticking another Shoot-N-C target over it. I use B-8 targets (paper targets similar to those used in archery--the classic "bulls-eye" target instead of the silhouette that has been in vogue for the last million years) and nine-inch Shoot-N-Cs covered more than I wanted, plus they didn't really fit super well into my range bag. When I ran out of the Wal-Mart ones I decided to hit up Amazon and see what they had to offer and came across this. These are not the cheapest reactive targets available--that is reserved for the non-adhesive version--but they are definitely the best deal for my purposes. These fit exactly over the six-inch black central rings of the B-8 targets I use and do indeed make night into day. My only gripe: I wish they came with more "fix-it" stickers. But that would mean I would buy less of them, and the four included "fix-it" stickers are a pretty good value regardless. Sometimes I find the "fix-it" stickers will pop off if I happen to shoot right on the edge of one, but this happens very infrequently and could very well be due to me not pushing down hard enough on them to begin with. The fact that there are 60 of the suckers makes me feel completely not guilty about using them pretty liberally and not even bothering with the "fix-it" stickers half the time. It has made my range visits that much more enjoyable and that much more easy to gauge my progress. I plan on buying another one of these when my current stash gets low. Bottom line: looking for a reasonably priced bulk pack of adhesive reactive targets? Look no further; your search is over.

Very good targets. I wish the black and red hole pastes were a little bit bigger to cover a bigger hole.

These are good targets, I prefer these because they’re small so I am able to place 4 or more in the same area I can only fit two larger targets. I tailor new loads with these targets and at 100m it’s very easy to see my groups and makes days in the back 40 much more productive. Great purchase!

Great Price for rifle targets. Very easy stick to the card board stand. Easy to spot shots

Excellent product! At about 38 cents/target, impossible to beat. Easy to bring along to the range. Buy on big paper target, use many times with these stick on targets. Perfect size and color.

Les cibles haute visibilités son nombreuse, mais souvent de mauvaise qualité ou à des prix effrayants. Ici rien de cela, prix correct et bon rapport qualité/prix. Je recommande.

Tirando al poligono a 15 metri con una calibro 22LR, anche in condizioni di luce non ottimali, i colpi sul bersaglio sono perfettamente visibili. Un prodotto che consiglio a tutti gli amanti del tiro a segno.

Perfect target for teaching my grandsons how to use an air rifle. The point where the pellet hits the target is immediately and clearly visible. This is ideal as my grandsons no longer ask to look at the target after every shot. The "patches" are effective and extend the life of the target by covering previous hits.
