10 m · 25 m · 50 m
Lanes for every event you coach.
An academy range is mostly a planning problem: enough dependable lanes for the events on your timetable, scored the same way on every lane, without a maintenance load your staff cannot carry. That is the problem Tachus systems are built around.

Why electronic
What changes when the lanes score themselves
Walk a paper range during a session and count what the coach is doing: pulling cards, scoring by eye, resetting for the next shooter. On electronic lanes that work disappears, and the coach coaches. Shooters stay on the line instead of walking downrange between series.
The catch, historically, was cost and upkeep. The Tachus family exists because Indian academies needed electronic scoring they could afford to buy and run.
01
Lanes turn over faster
No card changes and no walking downrange. A shooter finishes, the next starts, and scoring is already running.
02
One software family across the range
Every model includes the Windows scoring software and the Android application at no additional software cost. Staff who learn one lane have mostly learned them all.
03
The lane mix follows your timetable
Tachus 10 for the 10 m air events, Tachus 25 for sports and standard pistol, Tachus 50 for 50 m rifle and free pistol. Buy for the events you actually run.
04
One lane can serve two distances
The 50/10 Hybrid converts between 50 m and 10 m in about ten minutes by swapping the front door. For a range with limited space, that is one lane doing the work of two.
05
Upkeep your staff can run
Consumables, mostly. Paper rolls on 10 m and hybrid lanes, rubber impact media at 25 m and 50 m, pellet traps that lift out. Routine maintenance is designed for range staff.
Planning
Planning a range with multiple lanes
Four decisions do most of the work. We go through all of them with you before anything is ordered, and quotations come back within one working day.
The lane mix
Start from the timetable: which events, how many shooters a session, where the queues form. That tells you how many lanes of each distance you need, and whether a convertible hybrid lane earns its place.
Cables and computers
Every target connects by cable to a Windows laptop or PC at its firing point. Decide cable routes and computer positions before any civil work, not after.
Range control at 25 m
Tachus 25 lanes include red and green traffic lights run from the scoring software, with illumination timings set in the practice software.
Who installs what
Tachus 25, 50 and 50/10 come with a mounting stand and installation and service at the range. For 10 m lanes we plan target positions, mounting and cable routes with you.
Equipment
The systems
All four score acoustically and connect by cable to a Windows computer at the firing point. The differences that matter are distance and impact medium.

10 m air rifle and air pistol, with a paper roll that advances automatically. Also the system for club competitions.
Tachus 25 ETS
25 m
25 m sports and standard pistol, with red and green range lights controlled from the scoring software.
Tachus 50 ETS
50 m
50 m rifle and free pistol, designed for simpler installation than conventional 50 m systems.
Tachus 50/10 ETS
50 m / 10 m
The convertible lane: 50 m rifle and the 10 m air events, changing over in about ten minutes.
Tachus supplies a mounting stand and provides installation and service at the range for Tachus 25, Tachus 50 and Tachus 50/10.
Running it
Built to be run by the range.
Routine maintenance uses replaceable consumables and is designed for range staff: paper rolls, rubber bands and pellet traps. Ranges that relocated have installed Tachus systems again at new premises with our support, which says something about how the systems are put together.
Every model carries a warranty for two years, extendable up to eight years, with phone and WhatsApp support from the Bengaluru team. Academies tend to test support harder than anyone; the reviews here are what that looks like from their side.

“We are using Tachus 10 Electronic Target System from December 2018. We also saw and used initial prototypes. System has been really good. Support is excellent. We get immediate response for any assistance. In 2020, we shifted range and installing the system again at the new location was very easy. We recommend this system to every range. It's affordable and easy to use.”
“We are using Tachus 10 Electronic Target System since October 2021. They are providing good service to us. They are very cooperative. As my student also knew that at the time of national practice in range the machine was used from morning 6 am to 8.30 pm / 9 pm. We ran the machine continuously. Connecting system to laptop is so easy and we like that. Overall, our experience is good with machine and Tachus and we are happy for that.”

Tachus supplies a mounting stand and provides installation and service at the range for Tachus 25, Tachus 50 and Tachus 50/10. For Tachus 10 lanes we plan the target position, cable route and computer location with you.
What maintenance will our staff handle?
Consumables: paper rolls on 10 m and hybrid lanes, rubber impact media on 25 m and 50 m lanes, and pellet traps. Routine maintenance is designed for range staff, and support is a phone call or WhatsApp message away.
