i down loaded some nra practice silos that are exact for smallbore. if i wanted to shrink them down to practice dry firing in my barn say 30 ft what percentage would i need to reduce them by.

i have enough snap caps i would like to every nown and then practice followthrough and the like in an actual timed match scenerio

Hi:
I think that you will have to make the targets 9.1% for rams, 11.8% for turkeys, 15.2% for pigs and 22.8% for chickens to use them at 30 feet.
These can be rounded to 9%, 12%, 15% and 23%. Hope this helps.
Regards, Steamer
