    Bell target info

    Hi guys.
    You may have seen my thread regarding my brother arranging a 10 meter target club at the social club where he is chairman for the members . it has proved popular so we have sourced a FWB 300S rifle to be used by anyone without their own rifle .
    I have just been watching some videos regarding indoor target shooting in general and I think that bell target shooting could be popular and add a fun aspect to the above gatherings . If anyone has any experience with this shooting style your input would be appreciated and if anyone has ever built one of these targets or knows where they are sold we would also be interested in that.
    The social club has its fair share of engineers so building a target wouldn't be too much of a problem if we knew what components we need and where they go . I'm not a engineer and couldn't build anything if my life depended on it so apologies in advance for any stupid questions I might make regarding replies about the technical side of a build .
    Thanks as always for your time. Atb Ricky

    Try red bob on here I bought a bell target off him about 5 years ago, superb quality,and Protek http://www.proteksupplies.co.uk/index.html used to have red bobs bell targets on their website but can't find any mention now, unless I missed it.
    And if you do a search on here for bell target here is plenty of info.

    Regards Gordon.

    We also use the RedBob bell targets and came up with a modification to make a hood that can house a small lighting unit that we have found very handy.

    The first prototype was made for us locally and has proven to be a very good idea.

    When he was shown what we had done Bob also liked this idea and has added the self illuminated type to his range.

    You are welcome to come over to see us at RMTC and take a look at our set-up and the bell target mods etc.

    We also have these bell targets set-up at 10 meters on our permanent range to make an interesting change from paper punching now and again.
    Rossendale Target Shooting Club. Every Tuesday and Thursday evening 7 - 10pm.
