1. An interactive target for long range shooting comprising:
- a target assembly wherein the target assembly includes an impact surface;
an impact detection module, wherein the impact detection module includes an impact sensor, a remote transmitter, and a battery;
a light;
a target control module, wherein the target control module includes a multi-channel receiver, a battery, a capacitor, and a potentiometer;
wherein the impact detection module is configured to detect a strike from a round of ammunition coming into contact with the impact surface;
wherein the light is wired to the target control module and where the target control module is configured to receive a wireless signal from the impact detection module; and
wherein the light is illuminated in response to the strike to the impact surface of the round of ammunition.

Abstract
An interactive target assembly is disclosed and claimed herein wherein the target assembly is meant to provide real-time feedback to a shooter or other remote onlooker. The shooter or other party can visually detect a strike to the target by way of a high powered LED light that is in wired communication with a target control module. The target control module is thereby in wireless communication via a multi-channel receiver with a remote control and an impact detection module. The impact detection module detects an impact to the target, sending a signal to the target control module, which illuminates a light to indicate a strike.
