additional pictures of bell target

With a little bit of non drying paint on the face of the target it is easy to see hits and then brush the marks out for another series of shots.

I bought a bottle of titanium dioxide on eBay and mixed a little machine oil into it. I had a pellet tin with a screw cap laying around which worked well for storing the paint. The non drying paint goes a long way in that you don't have to apply new paint very often...I just smear what's on the target face with my finger (a small brush would probably be better) when I want to start a new series of shots.

That's good info on the white wash. I was going to ask what you used thanks.
Also good to see that the pellet hits a paddle that then hits the bell so the bell doesn't get destroyed.
