Claim:
A target for use with one or more projectiles, comprising: a non-conductive web defining a target face and having a depth, the web defining a plurality of segments within the web that open toward the target face; a plurality of cups comprising a non-metal composite, one or more of the plurality of cups slidably mounted and filling the target face of each of the plurality of segments and having a mouth that opens toward the target face; an insert mounted within and filling each cup to the target face; a back board mounted to and behind the web, the back board having a plurality of pairs of switch contacts; and a resilient dielectric cushion attached to each cup between the cup and a corresponding one of the pairs of switch contacts, the cushion having at least one conductive area facing the corresponding pair of switch contacts; wherein each of the one or more projectiles impacting one of the inserts at the target face with sufficient force causes the cup and cushion for that insert to slide within the web and the at least one conductive area of the cushion to touch the corresponding pair of switch contacts beneath that cup, and the cushion resiliently returns the cup to its original position.
