Where to get one of each PC silhouette animal?

Centerfires, rimfires, pistol cartridges and everything in between.

Where to get one of each PC silhouette animal?

Post by Jason »

I haven't found a place with ready-made swingers for smallbore and pistol cartridge cowboy matches, so I think I might have to build my own. I have seen a couple designs that I think I can take the best of and make my own but I need the actual animals to attach to them first. Anyone know of a place to get them? Does anyone have a cutter that wants to whip some up for me? I don't even need bases on them. I'm just going to weld them to the rebar, anyway, but don't know anyone with a plasma cutter to cut them out.

I usually shoot our smallbore and PC cowboy matches on Saturday to try to get in the groove for the smallbore matches on Sunday, but I think I might take the cowboy thing a little more seriously. I have finished my PC grand slam and made master class, so my last challenge is to shoot a 40. I got close yesterday, but I pulled one shot just off the breast of one of the turkeys. It was my first 39/40, so I'm getting there. :)

Jason, Here's a place that has them... http://estore.targetsilhouettes.com/cgi-bin/targets

Pricey... but will offer a discount on a full set.

Wow, that's scary pricey. I could probably just find a place here to cut some out if I had the right shape/size info (preferably in a format someone who does the job would want) and knew what steel to make them out of.

Jason, you'll never sell the missus on the idea of buying a couple hundred dollars worth of swinging targets so you can pick up that last animal out of 40 possible......Congratulations on a great score.

Thanks, but I don't plan to sell her on this. I plan to ask forgiveness later. :)
