String for FT Targets?

#1 Post by topher1266 »

I am looking for string to use for resetting FT Targets. Some of the guys at Port Colborne have this great yellow line would love to get ahold of that in different colors.
Deal with local or small business,they treat you way better than the big chain stores!

You could try braided fly fishing line
I have some airguns.

CT, I think it was, might still have a package of yellow braided nylon cording. Not sure the length, though as you'd need up to 180feet per target.

A 130 pound test (Gudebroad Meat Line) or modern braid fishing braided line might be best at this job. 80 would likely work just fine. The braided Dacron Gudebroad should be considerably cheaper than the modern braid.

Mason's line works well and comes in multiple colours. I use it on my targets - most hardware stores carry it.
