    Dirt-cheap DIY reactive / 'Shoot-N-C' targets

    A friend introduced me to reactive targets the other day while sighting in my new rifle at 100m -- made the holes a bit more visible!

    They're not cheap though and you have to go out and buy them... so I tried making my own with hardware and dollar store materials... read on, DIY enthusiasts!

    You'll need:

    1. Black spraypaint
    2. Paper or card, ideally flouro-coloured for good contrast
    3. Zip-lock bags
    4. Small white stickers, white-out or similar
    5. A few minutes... Less time than it would take to go out and buy them readymade.

    Put the paper/card in the bag and spray one side. Leave it to dry for a few minutes.

    Put a sticker in the middle for a bullseye. I used roll-on white-out.

    Here's the result from a few .177 pot shots in the back yard. Too easy!

    Thanks to the Playstation we have the outdoors to ourselves!
