Firearm Targets

his collection contains our targets for pistol and rifle shooting.

For both our Non-NRA and NRA targets, we use to the extent

possible, the NRA target nomenclature. That is, target numbers are

assigned based on discipline. Targets with "TQ" designations are

training and qualification targets. TQ targets usually have larger

bullseyes and scoring areas than competition targets. Alpha series

targets such as "A" (smallbore rifle), "B" (pistol), and "AR" (air rifle)

are official competition targets. Alpha series targets are used for

most all other formal shooting activities—postal matches, leagues

and competition. Any number

appearing after a "/" in any target

designation (AR-5/10, TQ-1/1),

indicates the number of bullseyes

that are contained on the target

paper. Official NRA targets are

produced using special approved

paper and specifications.
