RE Factor Tactical Target Lineup, Featuring the IQ and Essentials Targets
RE Factor Tactical has a variety of targets intended to help amp up your shooting game. They like to say that the best target is the one that makes you better, and RE Factor has done an excellent job at providing targets to help. We want to highlight two targets from RE Factor: their Pistol and Rifle IQ Targets and the Essentials Target.
IQ Targets
The IQ Target comes in a pistol or rifle version. So, depending on what you’re aiming to shoot will depend on which target you’d be using. So, how does it improve your shooting? Well, the IQ Targets make the shooter think by presenting a variety of letters, numbers, shapes, and colors to shoot.
Instructors or range buddies can give the command, “Shoot all circles with a number in them” or “shoot all the red shapes.” This forces the shooter to think about where they need to aim, rather than merely putting holes in paper. Or, you can draw from the Dead Man’s Hand Shooting Deck and follow those instructions.
- Measures: 23 x 35 in.
- Unlimited amount of shooting combinations
- Pistol targets: 3 in. shapes
- Rifle targets: 5 in. shapes
- Made in the USA
IQ Pistol Target
The IQ Pistol Target comes with 3-in. shapes, which makes it great for up-close or long-range pistol work.
IQ Rifle Target
The IQ Rifle Target comes with larger 5-in. shapes, which makes it an excellent option for close quarters or short-range rifle drills.
You can purchase the rifle or pistol IQ shooting targets through RE Factor Tactical.
Dead Man’s Hand Shooting Deck
If you want to add a little more excitement to your range days and improve your shooting skills, RE Factor makes something called the Dead Man’s Hand Shooting Deck.
Intended to work specifically with IQ Targets, you can purchase the deck for pistol or rifle drills. And like the targets, the shooting decks are designed to help shooters think before pulling the trigger.
Like most card decks, the Dead Man’s Hand Shooting Deck comes with 52 different cards. But these aren’t just any cards; they also come with 52 different shooting drills, where the goal is to get the shooter to recognize their target(s) before firing.
This deck also offers a variety of drills for every skill level. If you’re a beginner, there are drills for you; if you’re more advanced, there are drills to challenge your skills. You can even add in shooting times to add stress and make it even harder.
Each deck comes with an instruction guide and metal case for secure storage in a range bag. So, grab your IQ Targets, throw a pistol or rifle deck in your range bag, and let’s get shooting!
