If a 12-bull AR 4/10 target is used, the sighting targets are located in the center of the target and enclosed with a guard ring.

• A. Beyond the outer edge of the target.
• B. In the center of the target and enclosed with a guard ring.
• C. On the back of the target.
• D. Not on the target.

Answer: (B)

Sighting targets are designed to provide a precise, repeatable aiming reference. Placing them in the center of the target and enclosing them with a guard ring gives a clear, defined area to aim at when zeroing the rifle. The centered position ensures you consistently align the front sight with the same point, making adjustments reliable, while the guard ring creates a distinct boundary so you don’t accidentally aim at outer areas or misread the target. If the sighting targets were beyond the outer edge, on the back, or not printed on the target at all, you wouldn’t have a consistent, front-facing reference to align with, making sighting in unreliable.
