Looking at the rules, the Big Bore targets show dimensions for the feet.
But the Small Bore just says,
"The "feet" upon which the targets rest should be made from the same
type and thickness of steel as the targets. The feet shall be welded to the
targets per the official templates."
It does not give dimensions or placement as to where to weld them to the legs. Any help would be appreciated.

Re: Small bore feet
The feet for all 4 animals should be cut from 1.5" wide flat bar, same thickness as the target. 2.5" long for chickens, turkeys & rams. Pigs can be 4" long and use a single foot to cover both legs. Chickens and turkeys should have the foot welded with the rear edge of the leg even with the back edge of the foot. Pig, centered on the 4" foot. Rams, one foot centered on each leg. I've posted an image to clarify this.

Thanks for the info. I am laying out a template to cut everything out and wasn't sure of dimensions and placement. I finished about 1/2 hour ago, guessing (I wasn't too far off). I'll have to go back and correct my drawings.
