bullseyes

Targets' central marks

Bullseyes is the plural of bullseye—the center of a target, or a shot that hits it.

By extension, any perfectly accurate statement or action: Her criticism was a bullseye.

Bullseyes are also round peppermint candies with concentric stripes, and small circular windows on ships.
