I've been shooting at 100 yards with a reduced target to simulate 300 yards, but now I want to shoot at 300 yards? Anyone know what a/the standard target is?

Thanks

SR3?


(if you're talking about NRA High Power, it's SR-3)
 
High power rifle shooting at the full regulation distances requiries a range
with firing lines at 200, 300 and 600 (or 500) yards.

Every official NRA stage or course of fire normally conducted at 200, 300, or
600 yards can be run at 100 yards on NRA official reduced targets. The SR-1
target simulates the 200 yard target; the SR-21 is the 100 yard equivalent of
the 300 yard target and the MR-31 gives the same appearance at 100 yards as the
normal 600 yard target does at the full distance.

Because of their smaller size, the reduced targets are well adapted to being
hung on stationary frames. Because of the short distances involved, it is
practicable to walk down to the targets after each string and remove them for
scoring elsewhere or to score then on the frames. The use of stationary target
frames avoids the complications that sometimes arise when the number of
shooters on the line isn't equal to the number of target operators in the pits.

Reduced 300 and 600 yard targets are also available for firing at 200 yards.
The NRA can provide a list of target sources, including reduced targets.

What Taliv said... SR3 is the standard NRA high power target for 300 yards.
 
a 5 inchcircle, shoot an see target, or a 30" x 18" for rapid, man sized target, these two will help you to accomplish quite a bit , at 300 yds.
 
Every official NRA stage or course of fire normally conducted at 200, 300, or
600 yards can be run at 100 yards on NRA official reduced targets. The SR-1
target simulates the 200 yard target; the SR-21 is the 100 yard equivalent of
the 300 yard target and the MR-31 gives the same appearance at 100 yards as the
normal 600 yard target does at the full distance.

Targets
On a 100-yard range: use SR-1 target to simulate 200 yards, SR-21 target to simulate 300 yards, and MR-31 target to simulate 600 yards.

On a 200-yard range: use SR target at 200 yards, SR-42 target to simulate 300 yards, and MR-52 target to simulate 600 yards.

On a 300-yard range: use SR target at 200 yards, SR-3 target at 300 yards, and MR-63 target to simulate 600 yards.

On a 600-yard range: use SR target at 200 yards, SR-3 target at 300 yards, and MR-1 target at 600 yards.
