NRL Hunter Animal Targets

[BeteNoire]

I am getting some steel targets water jetted and need some advice for sizing. I am doing some coyotes, prairie dogs and pigs...what overall sizes should I make them? What are the common sizes they usually use in NRL hunter matches?

Copied and pasted from the NRL Hunter site...

What is the average distance of the targets? The average distance for targets will be about 450 yards, however targets can be as close as 100 yards and as far as 1000 yards.

What is the average target size? The average target sizes will be 12×12 or 12×18 inches representing the vital zone of most typical large game animals in North America.

Alot depends on what distance you set them, the scale of the animal/sillouette is, to some extent the pose/cut shape, etc.

Ive seen some really big bears and some really small bears at those matches.

Id cut em to .3-.4 mil size @ 400-600 yds
