Target 4-6-2022 (300 yards) transferred to a Third Class 4ft x 6ft Target for size comparison. It is just too much trouble to convert them all!!
Although I may never hit the bullseye as they did, even with the use of a 6x scope, I can at least group nearly the same. I am happy with my "Group" results.

Actual hit holes are much smaller than shown, see 500 yard target explanation above. Unsure if this is a second or third class target, but should be second class.

The Stuart brother's Winchester 73' 500 yard targets from early 1876. T. Stuart, 13 of 15 shots, score 60. 2 cartridges failed to fire. Rifle #7,282 (One of One Thousand)
A more accurate scale of the 500 yard target as described by the target design description aforementioned. This makes a lot more sense. (6 feet x 6 feet targets)
The Stuart brother's Winchester 73' 500 yard targets from early 1876. G. Stuart, 15 shots, score 62. Rifle #5,611 (One of One Thousand)
A more accurate scale of the 500 yard target as described by the target design description aforementioned. This makes a lot more sense. (6 feet x 6 feet targets)
