Olympic Target Specifications for 10 meter air pistol shoot

Post by Brian Edmonds »

Can anyone supply the target specifications for the Olympic 10 meter air pistol competition?
I am using a software package called "Graph Paper" where you can design your own targets. I am designing a target that shows radial increments in 1 mm. but I don't know how wide to make each scoring band. Are they evenly distributed, exponentially or distributed such that all band areas are equal... I don't know?
I checked the ISSF rules but they just jump you around without providing this information.
Any help would be appreciated.

All specifications of targets are listed on Chapter 6, section 3.
Check page 2.

Would buying a B-40 target and measuring off of it help?: Can anyone supply the target specifications for the Olympic 10 meter air pistol competition?

Bah, use Edelman Targets

Hi Brian,
I think you will be much happier if you bit the bullet and buy the Edelman targets.
These targets are made of a special short fiber paper that will make clean holes, much cleaner than on any paper that you can print out on your computer. (I tried...)
I typically shoot twenty shots per target and only occasionally have difficulty scoring the target. A 250 count package of targets only costs about 12 dollars and will do five thousand pellets.

Jerry is right, at a nickle apiece it is hard to justify the time and cost of making them yourself and the Edleman make nice round hole instead of long ugly tears. Also the bright white printer paper looks very different than the tan paper most targets are printed on. Hi Brian,
