An archery target is a building used to improve the marksdwarf skill. They can be built by pressing the A key (shift and a) under the build menu. It uses one stone, log, bar or block to be built and requires architecture skill.
To create an archery range from an archery target, select the target using q and hit r to "Make Archery Range." After choosing the size of the archery range, you must then set a safe shooting direction using w, a, s, or d.
Shooting at an archery target improves a dwarf's marksdwarf skill. Shooting requires a crossbow and wooden or bone bolts (metal bolts are considered too valuable and will not be used). Bolts shot at a target are destroyed and cannot be reclaimed, but will form a small rubble pile that can be cleaned up by a dwarf with the cleaning labor enabled. Only off-duty squads will use archery targets. You can switch a squad to off-duty by accessing the military menu with m, selecting the appropriate squad with v, and setting it to off-duty with t.
