I was wondering if there are any Free Pistol targets available which are reduced for 25 yrds and 50 ft. Thanks.

Try searching for a "B 11 target. This should get you started.

I shot on a 50' target last week, so I know they're out there.

I don't remember ever shooting Free at 25 yards, but I know they're out there.

The B11 and a 10m air pistol target are very close to the same size.
You can use the air pistol target at 50 ft and I used to use it also at 25 yds for free pistol practice also.

You can also use SCATT and print whatever size you want,

They have very high quality targets in standard and reduced sizes for a variety of disciplines. I don't have time to search for exactly what you want, but I know I have bought reduced FP targets from them. They are not much more expensive than the cheap targets and the holes are nice and clean.

B-11 is fine for 50ft (15.24m) use.

But if you have a 25yd range available (indoor or outdoor), I would find 25yds (22.8m) more representative of the discipline (50m = B-17 Target).

For use at 25yds, I would recommend:

B-19
UIT 50 Yard Reduction of
50 Meter Slow Fire
Official NRA Target

The legend at the top of the B-19 target reads:

"25/50 YD Pistol Target"
Reduced UIT Target for use on English Measurement Distances"

This target is also shown in the link you posted.

You will need to use more targets to shoot a 60-shot match at 50ft on the B-11. Probably 5 targets, 10 shots on each. This is because you will have more overlapping (unscorable) shots at 50ft.

At 25yds, I find I can usually shoot an entire 60-shot match and score every one on a single B-19 target. This is something to consider, since these targets can be quite expensive if you shoot a lot. And I highly recommend using the higher quality, long-fiber, tagboard targets for scorability = more expensive.

You can download images from the internet and print on regular 20-lb stock. But you will get lots of rips that make scoring difficult.
