Useful thread. After trying a few different things, this is what I'm using at the moment for my .22LR to 75 metres. I just want to know that I can get a headshot on a bunny at this distance rather than win any competitions. The larger diamonds are 5cm, the smaller ones 3cm. The 1cm black dots came from an air rifle target shooting video on YouTube. The presenter said the smaller the target, the more precise your aiming will be. This has proven true for me, but I only go for them at 25 meters or less. Longer distances are just torture!

This is the target I use, which I created myself using my AutoCAD software. As mentioned above, I also turn it on a 45 degree angle so it becomes a diamond shape, which makes it much easier to align with the cross hairs in a scope.
I then added the gridlines - the distance between the slightly thicker lines is 1 inch, while the gap between the thinner lines is 0.5 inch. Once again, I find this easy when I'm looking at the groups on my target and I can instantly see my grouping size. I find it also works when using the precision target software I have discussed on the forum here as I can use the gridlines when calibrating the software.
I am quite happy to PDF the target and send to someone on here. I print on a reasonably heavy stock, as I get a perfect bullet hole. I find normal printing paper is a pain because it rips.
