Craig Fosse 286 Posted May 13, 2013 Report Share Posted May 13, 2013 Hi guys, I like many others, zero before every shoot, unless I'm going out early doors and setting up in the pitch black where I make sure I zero the night before. I have been scowering the Internet for a target which I can keep in my pocket, one that doesn't always break and one I can reuse. About a month ago I purchased one off ebay and have used it ever since thinking it was great, Unfortunatly I managed to loose it by forgetting to pick it up, the other day I went to get another one and e mailed Micha off ebay who has made them all his life, to find out his inventory has grown. He used to make his targets for himself to shoot until a few friends told him to put them on ebay where now he has orders coming out your ears. I was a test for his latest target with a 15mm self resetting killzone. I asked him if I could review it on here because I really think its something you can benefit from The targets come in a range of sizes, made from galvanised steel. There are a number of different options you can get, all which fit nicely in your hunting bag or in your pocket. Obviously with anything the paint tends to wear off after a few shots, but I have just brought some white circle price stickers which I carry with them to put on every time I shoot if I'm wanting to check zero. They are perfect for plinking, I went out yesterday and shot them all back to 45 yards in a lane with a few others and they worked impeccably. With each purchase you get a few extra screw targets which you can attach to a post or a bit of wood yourself. I highly recommend them to anyone who enjoys plinking or needs a zeroing target. http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/AIR-RIFLE-AIRGUN-SHOOTING-TARGET-40MM-DISC-SELF-RESETTING-/121109774518?pt=UK_SportingGoods_Hunting_ShootingSports_ET&hash=item1c32b480b6 http://www.youtube.com/embed/gvuU2HrBb8E?rel=0 Every now and then the targets pop up and start at .99p so grab yourself a bargain! I honestly can't rate then enough All the best Craig Quote Link to post
davyt63 1,845 Posted May 13, 2013 Report Share Posted May 13, 2013 hi buddy thanks for sharing! i like the tumbling target really good idea Quote Link to post
The one 8,585 Posted May 13, 2013 Report Share Posted May 13, 2013 They look well made and aren't expensive thanks mate Quote Link to post
Craig Fosse 286 Posted May 13, 2013 Author Report Share Posted May 13, 2013 No dramas guys, I honestly can't rate them enough, I think Micha is even going down the route of patenting them because they are selling so good, The ones up there are just a few, like I said I have just tested the 15mm kill zone one for him which worked really well, I will get some more photos of mine in the week to show you them in action a bit better. He sold me two for £15 quid and threw in two other spinning targets which you screw into a post or whatever for free. Top bloke.! Quote Link to post
Mawders 595 Posted May 13, 2013 Report Share Posted May 13, 2013 Hey Craig thanks for sharing buddy. I recently purchased a similar thing from great fun targets. Ten quid delivered to the door and its small enough to put in my game bag for when boredom creeps in and the vermin don't want to play, I go stick it out in the ground and plink away. Like you said they are also good to keep your rifle zero checked. I know if I miss a sitter I'll go and drop my spinning target out and double check it isn't the scope playing up. Peace of mind at the end of the day! Phil Quote Link to post
M_Blue 1 Posted May 13, 2013 Report Share Posted May 13, 2013 I really like these,handy for checking zero like you say and small enough to carry around. I think I'll invest in some. Thanks for sharing. ATB Mike Quote Link to post
