I'm assuming you are after the PL7 for precision, and PL17 for rapid? The centres are PL8 and PL18, respectively. The NSRA shop does sell all of these, both in person, and via mail order.

For bulk orders, I believe these folks can work out quite cheap:

Quite why targets should be "restricted" is beyond me. Anyone care to enlighten the forum on this? The PL7 and PL17 targets are used for gallery rifle as well as pistol shooting--perhaps the word "pistol" is scaring people, so you could talk about GRCF 25m precision, and GRCF Surrenden instead...

As an interim I have made up an A4 sized PL7 centre which is printer friendly to save using all of my toner in a day. I will print a couple off and see how they look down in the workshop which is 10m

Hello OvenPaa,
not so much online but personally I recommend splashing out your hard earned cash on this piece of software
http://www.mcw-tech.com/targetexpress/
The cost of a couple of pints its bloody good piece of software, and it has the NRA / ISSF / ISPC / Cowboy Action / law enforcement targets in there as well as the Figure 11's. It allows scaling so you can scale a figure 11 to be shot at 200yds but from 25yds if that makes sense.
You can also import your own targets into the software.
I am assuming you are after P8 range of targets which are about 21" x 21".
That would be the American NRA and not the original NRA.
Yes it's the NRA that works and supports the sport and members.
The software might include pl7's

That's only 49p each, I'm fairly sure that you can buy lesser amounts though the cost may be higher. We always found buying direct from McQueens cheaper. The repair centres are cheaper again.

Sadly some people are dumb enough to think if you shoot at realistic targets you'll go out and kill people! PC gone mad...
Just order them from ALCO targets in the USA.
