22rf barrels and length?

garandman, if the IBS is the target that will be used in most matches you will shoot. to help with transitioning to ARA or ir50, try to place your shots inside the 10-ring clean (no touching the ring) and go for X counts.
remember, if you take out the dot on the IBS that will most likely be a 100 on the ARA and minimum a 10 on the ir50.
my first season was shooting the RBA which is similar to the ir50, then they switched to the IBS for 1-1/2 seasons, I knew it wouldn't help my shooting. so I tried every shot to go for the x, knowing if I got an x that it would score on a ARA a 100. back in May we switched back to the RBA for the unlimited class, I finished the season earlier this month with my personal best of 748-54X on a very cold Sunday 38-degrees.
sometimes you just got to use what you are given, and be creative.

i hate to admit it, but i was going to suggest the ABRA target to him for starters.. cuz if you take out 75% of it, you know that you are in the money..
 
and if you take a quarter of that ABRA dot out.. you are pretty assured of a ten on the 50/50 target (might be an X), and most likely a 100 on the ARA

Doc, That would have been ok, but if he wants to practice for ARA or ir50 shooting a 25-bull format would be better, since he can learn time management with 25 shoots versus 20
I am so glad my club went back to the RBA for the unlimited shooters.

yes that is a good point..it's lucky.. i get exposed to ARA, IR50/50, 10 Shot, ABRA and PSL at my club
 
@Hi-NV Shooter ... exactly.

Use the IBS and just score it "worst edge"

Works just fine.

Mostly I'll be shooting ARA. SO I'll use those targets.

That would work, but you want to not think about scoring worst edge, but think about shooting worst edge.
put your mental state in that frame of mind and you will buckle down and try harder to put it in the center, instead of thinking about putting it in the green circle.
