Crosshair Shooting Target Stencil 3-Pack – Reusable 10 Mil Mylar Spray Paint & Airbrush Target Templates for Steel Plates, Paper & Cardboard

Paint your own crosshair targets in seconds. Each stencil lays out a bold scope-style crosshair: four tapered arms meeting at a center dot, framed by segmented scoring rings. Lay it on your target, hit it with spray paint or an airbrush, lift, and you have a crisp, high-contrast aiming point ready for the range.

Each pack includes three stencils in graduated sizes, so you can paint matching targets for close and long range, or size the crosshair to fit each steel plate and gong you own.

Great for: refreshing steel gongs and plates (AR500 and other steel targets) so new hits stand out, paper and cardboard targets, and plywood target boards. Popular for sighting in rifles, pistol practice and making a stack of matching targets at home for a fraction of the cost of pre-printed ones.

• Two packs to choose from: Large Pack with 12″, 6″ and 4″ stencils, or Small Pack with 8″, 4″ and 3″ stencils. Choose your pack above.
• Thick 10 mil mylar: rigid enough to lay flat and line up quickly, flexible enough to wrap a curved or uneven surface, and reusable hundreds of times.
• Bridged design: the rings are segmented and the crosshair arms are tapered so every part of the stencil stays connected. No loose centers to lose, and it holds its shape wash after wash.
• Easy to clean: wipe off excess paint between uses; let paint dry and it peels or wipes away.

How to use

1. Customer tip: before laying the stencil down, lightly mist the painting side of the stencil with WD-40 and wipe off the excess with a clean cloth. Paint is less likely to stick and build up, so the stencil cleans up much more easily. Keep the WD-40 off the target itself, or the target paint may not stick.
2. Lay the stencil flat on a clean, dry target surface. Tape the edges or use a light spray adhesive to stop overspray creeping under the stencil.
3. Spray in light, even coats from about 8 to 12 inches away. A contrasting color works best (for example white or orange on a dark steel plate, or black on white).
4. Lift the stencil straight up while the paint is still wet, and you’re ready to shoot.
