Abstract: A firearm target is specially adapted to provide a superior “locked in” sight picture when viewed through firearm sights. Variations having different sized and spaced elements are provided to match different sighting systems and ranges. The elements can include a main wedge, a chisel pattern, foreground and background grids, and foreground and background borderlines. The chisel vertical spacing can be selected to match crosshair thickness and the targeting distance. Aligning the crosshairs to the gap can significantly or completely hide the gap. Misaligning the crosshairs to the gap causes the gap to become more visible because of the gap's highly noticeable and contrasting colors. The target thereby provides a lock-on functionality for a marksman.

Abstract: A firearm target is specially adapted for the purpose of sighting in a scoped firearm. The scope has a reticle with horizontal and vertical lines forming crosshairs. The target has a cross pattern in contrasting colors with a cross shaped gap. The gap is highly visible and may even be in a reflective color. The gap size is selected to match the crosshair thickness and the targeting distance. Aligning the crosshairs to the gap significantly or completely hides the gap. Misaligning the crosshairs to the gap causes the gap to become more visible because of the gap's highly noticeable and contrasting colors. The target thereby provides a lock-on functionality for a marksman.
