1. A method of operating a target actuator comprising:
- selecting a target actuator configured for attachment to a target and having a first piston assembly, and a second piston assembly;
attaching a target to the actuator;
selectively actuating one of the first and second piston assemblies to thereby rotate the target between a first position and a second position; and
selectively actuating the one of the first and second piston assemblies to thereby rotate the target between the first position and a third position.

Abstract
A multifunction target actuator allows a bullet target to be selectively presented to a shooter such that a first side may be presented, a second side opposite the first side may be presented, and the target may be oriented so as not to be presented to the shooter. The actuator allows for quick and accurate movement of the target.
