Abstract: Provided are a sputtering target for forming a magnetic recording medium film, on which a film having a low ordering temperature can be formed and which can suppress generation of particles, and a method for producing the same. The sputtering target for forming a magnetic recording medium film consists of a sintered body having a composition represented by the general formula: {(FexPt100-x)(100-y)Agy}(100-z)Cz, wherein x, y, and z are represented by atomic percent as 30?x?80, 1?y?30, and 3?z?63. Also, the method for producing the sputtering target has a step of hot pressing a mixed powder of AgPt alloy powder, FePt alloy powder, Pt powder, and graphite powder or carbon black powder in a vacuum or an inert gas atmosphere.
