And here we go again! I guess I need to dream up some side stages …
The best short range practice is small targets either paper or steel at close distances and if you’re using paper keep tighter groups on paper it’s easier to see hits. Steel can make you lazy since you don’t look for groups just impacts.
JC Steel has a bunch to choose from

Or the NRL22 package works too just depends on what you wanna spend.
There are a few places like D&M targets, Shooting targets 7, and JC Steel targets that sell rimfire targets but paper is really all you need. One inch pasters at 50 yards or 2” at 100. After you’re zeroed at 50 and have your data for any further shots stop shooting from prone or off a bench. If you can consistently hit those pasters off various props you’re ahead of the game. Don’t worry if you can’t but that gives you a baseline of where you are and what you need to work on.
Also don’t even care or think about getting smoked by anyone. You are shooting against yourself with a goal of improving every time. No one cares where you finish and if you are struggling most are quick to help you out because it’s all about having a good time. Making sure others are successful is a part of that.
No truer words have been spoken!!
It's all about the fun with the other folks and shooting added to it.

I’m going to go with the whole set. I have a range here at the house and I have room. I’m working on building barricades now. Also, I pick up scrap steel off of job sites here and there. This is my newest target, I’m calling it “the wind chimes”. I had the circles (sizes are comparable to a baseball, golf ball and a ping pong ball) but the rest are all scrap. The hangers are 1/2” rebar, the head off of a rail road spike, the other part of the rail road spike( horizontal) and a bracket from work. I’m setting it at 100yds for now.
