Popular in action shooting, metallic silhouette, long range shooting and various field target/ field shooting disciplines. Steel targets - also known as " gongs", these will make loud sharp sounds that are audible from distance and (sometimes) movements when hit.When hit by a bullet, the plastic film around the impact hole edge shrivels to expose the brighter underlayer, creating around the hole a high-contrast jagged rim that looks like splattered paint, and allows easier observation from distance. "Splatter" target - dual- lamination paper targets with an overlayer of dark-colored background (most often black, also dark blue) and a light-colored underlayer (often white or fluorescent yellow) separated by a plastic film.They are frequently used for silhouette shooting and plinking, and can involve anything from proper competition/commercial products to casual objects such as tin cans, glass bottles, bowling pins, golf balls, metal barrels/ plates or anything random that draws the shooter's attention. Reactive - designed to produce a visible or audible response when hit, usually by generating a sharp sound or by moving and/or bouncing along the ground.More frequently placed in a shooting range or field for 3D archery. the infamous " The Ex") have elaborately designed internal contents resembling anatomical organs, skeletons and blood and may even be overmolded with ballistic gelatin. 3D target - animal/human-shaped mannequin, commonly made from plastic/ fiberglass, corkwood or high-density styrofoam/ foam rubber, though some exotic models (e.g.Foam target - usually cubic in shape, made from high-density styrofoam, foam rubber or laminated corriboard, and primary used for archery.Requires mounting onto a rack, a hanger, a wire or a backboard during use. Paper target - ordinary disposable paper-based target with painted pattern for bullseye shooting, may be made from paperboard/ cardboard, corrugated board or even fiberboard, and usually single-use and purchased in large quantities.Flying target (used in skeet, trap, double trap).Disappearing target (example is defunct discipline disappearing target small-bore rifle).Moving target (example is defunct discipline moving target small-bore rifle).100 metre running deer, 10 meter running target) Running target - target is moving sideways (e.g.The origin of these targets are not usually given Notable instances of shooting targets with martial origins which are considered abstract today, are the field targets used in Det frivillige Skyttervesen where the original intent was to resemble amongst other wheels of vehicles (S25 target), barrels (tønne), bunker openings (stripe 30/10 and 13/40) or enemy personnel (1/3, 1/4, 1/6 and 1/10 figure, minismåen, etc.). For instance, the well known circular bullseye target might originally have resembled a human torso or an animal being hunted. Most targets used in shooting sports today are abstract figures of which origins often are not given much thought, but given the military and hunting origins that started most shooting disciplines it is not hard to understand that many of the targets at some point originally resembled either human opponents in a battle or animals in a hunting situation. There are also electronic targets that electronically can provide the shooter with precise feedback of the shot placement. Targets can for instance be made of paper, "self healing" rubber or steel. Shooting targets are objects in various forms and shapes that are used for pistol, rifle, shotgun and other shooting sports, as well as in darts, target archery, crossbow shooting and other non-firearm related sports.
