Abstract
A target kit for improving the ease and accuracy of sighting in a telescopic sight which comprises a substantially rigid and self supporting sheet having a target face. Also, a package containing a plurality of sheets, each containing progressively sized die-cut concentric sighting frames having adhesive on one face for individually securing selected sighting frames of varying size to the target face. This provides a precise, compatible format for creating sight pictures. A stand connecting with the rigid sheet is also provided. The stand acts to position the rigid sheet in an upright position. Securing means including a first securing means provided on the rigid sheet and second and third securing means provided on the stand. The kit also includes a package of hole patches for covering previous shot patterns.
Claims25
A targeting arrangement comprising:
- a target surface;
- a laminated sheet comprising;
- a plurality of progressively sized die-cut concentric sighting frames which have an adhesive on one surface thereof and are adapted to be selectively removed and secured to said target surface;
- each said sighting frame consists of a dark colored border area having inner and outer edges, said inner edges forming a square open center of a selected size and said outer edges forming the perimeter of said frame;
- said target surface consisting of a self-supporting substantially rigid sheet with one surface having a contrasting background with a plurality of vertical and horizontal grid lines arranged thereon forming equal sized squares over the entire said one surface, said grid lines being of a color corresponding to said dark color and said sighting frames and being of a size which allows one of said inner and outer edges to be aligned with said vertical and horizontal grid lines, whereby;
- when a selected sighting frame is secured to said one surface a vertical grid line is aligned with a pair of vertical edges of said sighting frame and a horizontal grid line is aligned with a pair of horizontal edges of said sighting frame creating a precise sight picture.
A target kit for improving the ease and accuracy of zeroing in a telescopic sight of a firearm which comprises:
- a substantially rigid and self supporting sheet having a target face;
- a package containing a plurality of adhesive coated sheets, each containing progressively sized die-cut concentric sighting frames having said adhesive on one face for securing said sighting frames to said target face, whereby;
- precise sighting pictures of varying sizes may be created on said target face.
A targeting arrangement including:
- a target surface;
- a laminated sighting frame sheet adapted to be secured to said target surface;
- said target surface consisting of a self-supporting substantially rigid sheet with one surface having a contrasting background with a plurality of vertical and horizontal grid lines arranged thereon forming equal sized squares over the entire said one surface, said grid lines being of a color corresponding to said dark color and said sighting frames and being of a size which allows one of said inner and outer edges to be aligned with said vertical and horizontal grid lines;
- said sheet construction comprising:
- a plurality of progressively sized die-cut concentric sighting frames which have an adhesive on one surface thereof and are adapted to be selectively removed and secured to said target surface;
- and
- each said sighting frame consists of a dark colored border area having inner and outer edges, said inner edges forming a square open center of a selected size and said outer edges forming the perimeter of said frame;
- a pair of vertical and horizontal index lines are arranged to extend across each border area of said sighting frame;
- whereby, when a selected sighting frame is secured to said one surface a vertical grid line is aligned with a pair of vertical index lines of said sighting frame and a horizontal grid line is aligned with a pair of horizontal index lines of said sighting frame so as to accurately index said sighting frame with said grid lines.
