Target shooting software download

A text block which can be moved anywhere on the screen summarizes all the key data. The program worked with bullet holes as small as 17 caliber and as large as 50 caliber. It is very precise, but remember that if your target photo was taken at an angle, distorted perspective can cause slight errors in measurement. Therefore, for the ultimate precision, you want to start with a flat scan of the target.

OnTarget communicates easily with most scanners. Forum member Bob Spencer reports: "[OnTarget] is easy to use, well documented, and it interfaces very well with my HP scanner. Here's his review: "Excellent tool, extremely user friendly, and fast. I measured a five-shot group manually with dial calipers and then used OnTarget and was within. The best part of the program is that it is accurate and free. We found OnTarget to be especially useful for groups with widely dispersed bullet holes, or very small bullet holes, such as 17 caliber holes.

It can be very difficult to measure cal group sizes with a standard caliper, because the tool itself obscures the tiny holes. With OnTarget, the program can zoom up your target view, making it much easier to plot the center of each shot. And with a widely dispersed group of shots, the program automatically finds the two most distant shots.

You can't mistakenly pick the wrong pair of shots to measure. OnTarget also works great when you're plotting a large number of shots that overlap.

The program also calculates average shot distance from center ATC. This is very useful for score shooters who need to "hold center" on the Ring see below. It shows how to import a target image or scan, how to set target distance and scale, how to set bullet size and circle each bullet hole, and how to save the marked and measured target.

The first photo shows a 17 Mach 2 target with five bullet holes, two overlapping. These tiny cal holes are notoriously hard to measure.

With OnTarget, it's a snap. You just load the target image into the program, zoom in with the controls, and then click on the center of the holes. The program automatically calculates group size, displaying measurements in both inches and minutes of angle MOA. The first image shows the target image loaded into the program with the ten holes circled in red. The Aim Point was set at the center of the "X" and the program calculates average distance from the Aim Point.

Very cool. Here are some tips: 1. Once you've set a circle around a bullet hole, it's there for good. You cannot delete the circle around the hole. If you made a mistake, you need to delete the group and start over again. Colors change immediately.

A "Text" icon will pop up and you can move it to the new position with your mouse. If you use a target photo, rather than a scan, you'll need a reference measurement to set scale. This needs to be a true dimension, such as width of a target grid, or the diameter of a coin photographed on the target. The longer the reference dimension, the more accurate the scale will be.

To set the reference, click the button with two blue "X"s connected by a diagonal line. You can plot multiple groups on the same target. Using a projector or a second monitor enables the use of animated and moving targets, more realistic training exercises, and even video for more realistic training. Training exercises make dry fire training fun and more effective by helping you keep score, time drills, pratice shoot-don't-shoot drills, and much more.

Record your shooting sessions to view them later or share them with a friend. Optionally record yourself shooting to check your form! Virtual targets are used by training exercises to detect exactly where your shot landed on a physical or projected target. Print a target out, tape it to the wall, point your camera at it, add the corresponding virtual target, and line the virtual target up with the physical target.

Using a projector? Just add the virtual target and you're done! Rich configuration options allow you to set shot sounds, ignore certain lasers, tweak shot detection, and much more. The configurable virtual magazine helps you practice reloads while you dry fire. Practice malfunction drills by turning on malfunctions and configuring the rate at which they occur.
