They allow individuals to practice in a variety of locations without needing specialized equipment beyond an air rifle, ammunition, and a safe backstop. Historically, simple paper targets have been a staple of firearms training, and the digital age has made these even more convenient. The benefit is continuous training availability which helps maintaining and improving shooting proficiency.
