Orion paper target equivalent

Post by redchile »

What is the Orion Paper target equivalent to the Megalink 50 foot rifle bull? I have ordered some that are equivalent to the NRA 50 ft rifle bulls (A17) but there is also an NRA (USAS) option and the CMP option when scoring.

Just want to make sure I have my kids practicing the right paper targets (and score them using the same size bull) to get ready for JO Qualifications.

Thanks!

I know this is an old topic, but to help others with clarification.

The Megalink & Sius targets for 50' are closest to the Orion "50M Rifle reduced for 50ft" target. This target is similar in design to the USA-50 target. I believe they use these targets is because they resemble the appearance of ISSF 50M shooting at closer range.

The Orion "50ft Conventional Rifle 12 Bull Target" is similar in design to the NRA A-17 target. This target is not used by USA Shooting or collegiate shooting.

Hope this helps.
