Electronic target calibration

I don't think the targets have any adjustments for this. Any method would be a verification rather than calibration. We have used the black paper roll to verify shot placement. Can't do it with just one shot, but it does work for a series of shots. Almost all the target mfr's use acoustic detection (microphones) and the speed of sound is fixed for any specific temperature. (OK, it does vary slightly with humidity, but well below the level that would affect the target)

Using 4 microphones allows the software to verify the data from each shot, a sanity test (three would work, but would not allow verification) After that, it's all digital. That doesn't change, unit to unit.
