A method for detecting a shot hit on an inflatable shooting target and for providing a real-time indication of the hit. The method includes the step of providing a shooting target system with one or more inflatable shooting targets, each of them is assembled on a blower, a power source that is connected to each blower through a controller that controls the activation of each blower, and a current meter between the controller and the power source. The method includes the second step of measuring the current that flow to a certain blower, detecting changes in the current level that occurs upon a hit in a certain inflatable shooting target that is assembled on that certain blower, and making and indication of the hit by turning off the certain blower or by sending a notification to a mobile device of the user or the operator.

An impact distance scoring system for clay target shooting includes a target embedded with a tracking sensor, a launching mechanism, a plurality of detection units, and a processing unit. The system is designed to determine the distance after launch at which a clay pigeon is struck by a shooter's projectiles, offering a quantifiable method for scoring in clay target shooting sports. The plurality of detection units is dispersed within a field of play at regular intervals. As the target travels across the field of play, the tracking sensor is detected by the detection units. The processing unit receives signals from the detection units to ascertain the travel distance of the target and calculates a score based on this distance. A display device connected to the processing unit provides a visual output of the score and travel distance, facilitating immediate feedback to the shooter.

Provided is a zeroing target for a firearm sighting system that includes a range card insert and a range card sleeve. The range card insert includes zero range increment markings, caliber markings, and a point of aim indicator. The range card sleeve includes a zero range viewing window, a caliber viewing window, a point of aim viewing window, and a point of impact indicator. The range card insert fits within the range card sleeve and can be moved upwards or downwards within the sleeve for selecting a desired zero range increment marking and caliber marking. A laser boresight is aimed at the point of impact indicator and a sighting system on the weapon is adjusted until the sighting system is pointing at the point of aim indicator. When the two values align, the weapon is properly bore-sighted for the desired caliber and range, which can then be confirmed by live fire.
