Embarassed greetings when i print the target off for the on line compitition,the green sight dot doesn' measure the correct size.I,m using correct size paper but it won,t print correct size. Must be simple fix but this simpleton can,t quite get right size unless I mess with the % increase. Is there an easier fix thanks Lar2t2

Try "Print to fit page" and see if this helps. If not, you may be forced to use a graphics program to "re-size" it appropriately.

Here's what I do, using a PC with Windows XP and Firefox.
Right click on the image in Alstone's post>save image as...

I usually save it to desktop, then open the image on the desktop and it should open in Windows picture and fax viewer, then print from the icon at the bottom.

Trying to print directly from the original post would never work right and I always ended up with a too small target.

I can only get a distance of 8 metres indoors in the basement. (not allowed to shoot from the dining room, through the living room and kitchen to the laundry room for some bizarre reason). Could I still play if I printed the target out at 80% size?

I'm afraid not the distance and target size have to be the same for everyone. You could try using a pistol at 5m or is it possible to shoot outside?

That is what I thought, but it doesn't cost anything to ask. I guess it is pistol in the winter and outdoors in the better weather. (Or wait until the wife is out.) thanks.
