This Fund is for people who want the potential for solid investment growth over
the long term.

How Your Fund Is Managed
Oppenheimer Target Fund seeks long-term growth by investing in the stocks of
companies that the Fund's managers believe have excellent growth potential and
are worth more than they cost. So the Fund's shareholders get the potential for
long-term appreciation.

         In today's stock market, the Fund's managers are targeting consumer and
industrial companies with strong earnings momentum, as well as companies that
have excellent prospects in technology growth areas, such as computer software
and networking. The Fund also invests in U.S.-based companies that are believed
to have superior growth potential because their products or services are in high
demand in foreign countries.

Performance
Total return at net asset value for the 12 months ended 12/31/94 was 0.46% for
Class A shares and -0.50% for Class C shares.(1)

         The financial markets had a difficult year and, like many mutual funds,
your Fund felt the effects. While difficult years are hard to accept, they're an
inevitable part of investing. That's why keeping a long-term perspective is
crucial to getting the most from your investment and helping you through
short-term market fluctuations.

         Your Fund's average annual total returns at maximum offering price for
Class A shares for the 1-, 5-, and 10-year periods ended 12/31/94 and since
inception of the Class on 1/22/81 were -5.32%, 8.46%, 10.49% and 15.51%,
respectively. For Class C shares, average annual total returns for the 1-year
period ended 12/31/94 and since inception of the Class on 12/1/93 were -1.38%
and -1.17%, respectively.(3)

Outlook

"In today's challenging markets, we're taking a more cautious approach to
portfolio management. There's no easy money to be made, and we're positioning
the portfolio more defensively. We're still looking for stocks trading at
attractive prices, with exciting earnings potential."

without deducting any sales charges. Such performance would have been lower if
sales charges were taken into account. 

2. Source: Lipper Analytical Services. The Lipper total return average for the
year ended 12/31/94 was for 141 capital appreciation funds. The average is shown
for comparative purposes only. Oppenheimer Target Fund is characterized by
Lipper as a capital appreciation fund. Lipper performance does not take sales
charges into consideration.

3. Average annual total returns are based on a hypothetical investment held
until 12/31/94, after deducting the current maximum initial sales charge of
5.75% for Class A shares. The Fund's maximum sales charge rate for Class A
shares was higher during a portion of some of the periods shown, and actual
investment results will be different as a result of the change. Total return for
Class C shares was based on a hypothetical investment held for that period,
after deducting the 1% contingent deferred sales charge for the 1-year
calculation. Class A and Class C shares were first publicly offered on 1/22/81
and 12/1/93, respectively. All figures assume reinvestment of dividends and
capital gains distributions. Past performance is not indicative of future
results. Investment and principal value on an investment in the Fund will
fluctuate so that an investor's shares, when redeemed, may be worth more or less
than the original cost.

Dear OppenheimerFunds Shareholder,

The past year has been a difficult period for the stock market, one marked above
all by one of the most aggressive series of moves to raise interest rates in the
U.S. Federal Reserve's history. As interest rates moved up, bond prices fell and
the stock market followed, while investors looked everywhere for answers to
questions about directions in inflation, interest rates, and the economy. These
questions all concerned one basic issue: Is the bull market in stocks coming to
an end?

         In our view, it is not. While we are not expecting major gains in stock
prices in the very near term, we believe that the uncertainties which held the
market back in 1994 will recede in 1995 as the fundamental positives in the
economy are recognized. The most important of these positives is our belief that
the Fed's attempt to preempt possible inflation, while temporarily
disconcerting, will likely have its desired effect in 1995. We believe that the
economy will begin to slow, and although short-term rates may move up modestly
from their present levels, long-term interest rates--the ones that most affect
securities prices--should stabilize in their current range. Long-term rates may
even begin to decline as overblown concerns about inflation abate.

         Those concerns are, in fact, already fading. While the prices of some
commodities have risen over the past year and U.S. manufacturing capacity
utilization and employment rose to their highest levels in years, in today's
globally competitive environment, price increases are difficult to pass on to
either consumers or businesses. The inflation rate--as measured by the Consumer
Price Index--continues to run at less than 3% a year, and there's nothing on the
horizon to suggest to us that it will increase substantially anytime soon. Even
at their current levels, interest rates remain low relative to recent periods,
and in our view, pose no real threat to most companies' earnings or cash flows.
During the most recent recession, many businesses learned to operate much more
efficiently and took advantage of the extended decline in interest rates to work
down their debt loads and strengthen their financial positions. As a result,
corporate profits have soared despite higher interest rates. And we believe that
business earnings should grow even more as economies in Europe and elsewhere
emerge from their recessions, stimulating demand for U.S. companies' goods and
services. As profits rise, we expect stocks to become more valuable.

         Finally, the changing political landscape reflected in results of the
mid-term election bodes well for the stock market over time. In addition to
limiting the expectation that Congress will pass potentially inflationary
government spending proposals, the realignment in Washington has raised the
possibility of tax relief in the form of an expanded deduction for individual
retirement savings or possibly a reduction in the capital gains tax rate. What
specific action, if any, Congress will take on these proposals remains to be
seen. But any action to reduce the federal deficit, cut spending, and reduce
taxes should be good news for the stock market overall.

         In light of all these factors, we remain bullish on stocks. As we have
noted in previous reports, we're expecting moderate gains in the short-term, in
line with increasing corporate earnings. Over time, however, we expect stocks to
perform well in both the U.S. and foreign markets. Your portfolio manager
discusses the outlook for your Fund on the following pages. We appreciate your
confidence, and we look forward to helping you continue to reach your investment
goals.

Q + A

An interview with your Fund's manager.

The past year was challenging for stocks and stock market funds, yet Target
Fund's performance was relatively good. What factors contributed to the Fund's
performance? 

The most important factor in our performance has been the moves we've made to 
position the portfolio more defensively.

In the first six months of the year, we moved out of cyclical stocks and
concentrated on financial, technology, and healthcare issues--an approach that
was rewarded. Over the last six months, we've concentrated more on consumer and
industrial companies with strong earnings power, and moved out of financial and
healthcare issues. We're looking for more than just attractive valuations. We're
also looking for proven earnings power. And we've increased the Fund's cash
position to its highest level in more than four years.

How has this defensive strategy affected your day-to-day management of the Fund?

In general, we're slower to buy and quicker to sell. We're extremely
price-sensitive; we don't want to overpay for any stock. And we're ready to sell
any stock that doesn't perform at or above our expectations. In today's markets,
this kind of caution is not only warranted, it's the key to good investment
performance.

Where are you finding the best values today?

In consumer cyclicals, we recently bought Brunswick, a well-diversified
recreation company positioned to profit from the pickup in power boat and engine
sales. On the industrial side, we recently added Georgia Gulf, a well-positioned
chemical company. I could add to the list, but those names suggest our general
buying emphasis on companies with good near-term profit outlooks that are
selling at relatively low prices.(1)

Q Why do you adopt a contrarian approach?

1. The Fund's portfolio is subject to change.

<PAGE>



Aren't companies like these somewhat out of favor?

They are, and this contrarian approach is something that sets the Fund apart. We
try not to jump on market bandwagons; if you do that, you're almost sure to buy
too late and hold too long. Instead, we analyze the companies whose stocks we
buy carefully, and try to buy before the market recognizes their potential.

How are you funding those purchases?

Mainly by selling stocks in the financial and healthcare sectors where we can do
so at a profit. We recently sold USF&G, a property and casualty insurer. And
we've been reducing our healthcare exposures throughout the year. We still have
significant positions in those sectors, but they're much lower than they were a
year ago.

The international stock markets seem to be primed for strong growth. Is the Fund
positioned to participate? 

While this Fund doesn't invest much of its assets in foreign companies, we do 
have significant holdings in companies that derive a third to a half of their 
earnings from sales outside the U.S., which covers a wide range of companies 
and sectors. Our largest holdings are technology stocks, such as Microsoft, 
Intel, Compaq, General Electric, Seagate Technologies, and Cabletron Systems.

How do you expect to manage the Fund going forward? 

In the near term, we'll continue to be defensive and maintain our cash position
until the markets stabilize. As the business cycle advances, we'll look for 
stocks with lower valuations. Depending on developments, we may trim our 
technology positions in favor of more defensive stocks, such as utility and 
energy issues. These aren't promises or predictions, of course, but they are 
definitely things we're thinking about.

                              Notes to Financial Statements

================================================================================================================================
1. Significant                Oppenheimer Target Fund (the Fund) is registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as
   Accounting Policies        amended, as a diversified, open-end management investment company. The Fund's investment advisor is
                              Oppenheimer Management Corporation (the Manager). The Fund offers both Class A and Class C shares.
                              Class A shares are sold with a front-end sales charge. Class C shares may be subject to a contingent
                              deferred sales charge. Both classes of shares have identical rights to earnings, assets and voting
                              privileges, except that each class has its own distribution and/or service plan, expenses directly
                              attributable to a particular class and exclusive voting rights with respect to matters affecting a
                              single class. The following is a summary of significant accounting policies consistently followed by
                              the Fund.

                              ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
                              Investment Valuation. Portfolio securities are valued at 4:00 p.m. (New York time) on each trading
                              day. Listed and unlisted securities for which such information is regularly reported are valued at
                              the last sale price of the day or, in the absence of sales, at values based on the closing bid or
                              asked price or the last sale price on the prior trading day. Short-term debt securities having a
                              remaining maturity of 60 days or less are valued at cost (or last determined market value) adjusted
                              for amortization to maturity of any premium or discount. Securities for which market quotes are not
                              readily available are valued under procedures established by the Board of Trustees to determine fair
                              value in good faith.

                              ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
                              Repurchase Agreements. The Fund requires the custodian to take possession, to have legally segregated
                              in the Federal Reserve Book Entry System or to have segregated within the custodian's vault, all
                              securities held as collateral for repurchase agreements. The market value of the underlying
                              securities is required to be at least 102% of the resale price at the time of purchase. If the seller
                              of the agreement defaults and the value of the collateral declines, or if the seller enters an
                              insolvency proceeding, realization of the value of the collateral by the Fund may be delayed or
                              limited.

                              ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
                              Allocation of Income, Expenses and Gains and Losses. Income, expenses (other than those attributable
                              to a specific class) and gains and losses are allocated daily to each class of shares based upon the
                              relative proportion of net assets represented by such class. Operating expenses directly attributable
                              to a specific class are charged against the operations of that class.

                              ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
                              Federal Income Taxes. The Fund intends to continue to comply with provisions of the Internal Revenue
                              Code applicable to regulated investment companies and to distribute all of its taxable income,
                              including any net realized gain on investments not offset by loss carryovers, to shareholders.
                              Therefore, no federal income tax provision is required.

                              ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
                              Trustees' Fees and Expenses. The Fund has adopted a nonfunded retirement plan for the Fund's
                              independent trustees. Benefits are based on years of service and fees paid to each trustee during the
                              years of service. The accumulated liability for the Fund's projected benefit obligations was $99,350
                              at December 31, 1994. No payments have been made under the plan.

                              ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
                              Distributions to Shareholders. Dividends and distributions to shareholders are recorded on the
                              ex-dividend date.

                              ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
                              Change in Accounting Classification of Distributions to Shareholders. The character of the
                              distributions made during the year from net investment income or net realized gains may differ from
                              their ultimate characterization for federal income tax purposes. Also, due to timing of dividend
                              distributions, the fiscal year in which amounts are distributed may differ from the year that the
                              income or realized gain (loss) was recorded by the Fund. Effective January 1, 1994, the Fund adopted
                              Statement of Position 93-2: Determination, Disclosure, and Financial Statement Presentation of
                              Income, Capital Gain, and Return of Capital Distributions by Investment Companies. As a result, the
                              Fund changed the classification of distributions to shareholders to better disclose the differences
                              between financial statement amounts and distributions determined in accordance with income tax
                              regulations. Accordingly, subsequent to December 31, 1993, amounts have been reclassified to reflect
                              a decrease in paid-in capital of $115,983, a decrease in undistributed net investment income of
                              $55,402, and an increase in accumulated net realized gain on investments of $171,385.

4. Management Fees            Prior to July 1, 1994, management fees paid to the Manager were in accordance with the investment
   And Other Transactions     advisory agreement with the Fund which provided for an annual fee of .80% on the first $200 million
   With Affiliates            of net assets, .75% on the next $200 million, .69% on the next $200 million, .66% on the next $200
                              million and .60% on net assets in excess of $800 million. Under the terms of the agreement, the
                              annual fees on the first and second $200 million of net assets decreased to .75% and .72%,
                              respectively, on July 1, 1994. The Manager has agreed to reimburse the Fund if aggregate expenses
                              (with specified exceptions) exceed the most stringent applicable regulatory limit on Fund expenses.

                                   For the year ended December 31, 1994, commissions (sales charges paid by investors) on sales of
                              Class A shares totaled $351,806, of which $141,646 was retained by Oppenheimer Funds Distributor,
                              Inc. (OFDI), a subsidiary of the Manager, as general distributor, and by an affiliated broker/dealer.
                              During the year ended December 31, 1994, OFDI received contingent deferred sales charges of $1,185
                              upon redemption of Class C shares, as reimbursement for sales commissions advanced by OFDI at the
                              time of sale of such shares.

                                   Oppenheimer Shareholder Services (OSS), a division of the Manager, is the transfer and
                              shareholder servicing agent for the Fund, and for other registered investment companies. OSS's total
                              costs of providing such services are allocated ratably to these companies.

                                   Under separate approved plans, each class may expend up to .25% of its net assets annually to
                              reimburse OFDI for costs incurred in connection with the personal service and maintenance of accounts
                              that hold shares of the Fund (prior to July 1, 1994, reimbursements were made with respect to shares
                              sold subsequent to March 31, 1991 for Class A), including amounts paid to brokers, dealers, banks and
                              other institutions. In addition, Class C shares are subject to an asset-based sales charge of .75% of
                              net assets annually, to reimburse OFDI for sales commissions paid from its own resources at the time
                              of sale and associated financing costs. In the event of termination or discontinuance of the Class C
                              plan, the Board of Trustees may allow the Fund to continue payment of the asset-based charge to OFDI
                              for distribution expenses incurred on Class C shares sold prior to termination or discontinuance of
                              the plan. During the year ended December 31, 1994, OFDI paid $33,166 to an affiliated broker/dealer
                              as reimbursement for Class A personal service and maintenance expenses and retained $4,642 as
                              reimbursement for Class C sales commissions and service fee advances, as well as financing costs

================================================================================================================================
                              The Board of Trustees and Shareholders of Oppenheimer Target Fund:

                              We have audited the accompanying statements of investments and assets and liabilities of Oppenheimer
                              Target Fund as of December 31, 1994, and the related statement of operations for the year then ended,
                              the statements of changes in net assets for each of the years in the two-year period then ended and
                              the financial highlights for each of the years in the ten-year period then ended. These financial
                              statements and financial highlights are the responsibility of the Fund's management. Our
                              responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements and financial highlights based
                              on our audits.

                                   We conducted our audits in accordance with generally accepted auditing standards. Those
                              standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the
                              financial statements and financial highlights are free of material misstatement. An audit includes
                              examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial
                              statements. Our procedures included confirmation of securities owned as of December 31, 1994, by
                              correspondence with the custodian and brokers; and where confirmations were not received from
                              brokers, we performed other auditing procedures. An audit also includes assessing the accounting
                              principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall
                              financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our
                              opinion.

                                   In our opinion, the financial statements and financial highlights referred to above present
                              fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of Oppenheimer Target Fund as of December
                              31, 1994, the results of its operations for the year then ended, the changes in its net assets for
                              each of the years in the two-year period then ended, and the financial highlights for each of the
                              years in the ten-year period then ended, in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles.

================================================================================================================================
                              In early 1995, shareholders will receive information regarding all dividends and distributions paid
                              to them by the Fund during calendar year 1994. Regulations of the U.S. Treasury Department require
                              the Fund to report this information to the Internal Revenue Service. A distribution of $2.982 per
                              share was paid on December 19, 1994, which was designated as a "capital gain distribution" for
                              federal income tax purposes. Whether received in stock or cash, the capital gain distribution should
                              be treated by shareholders as a gain from the sale of capital assets held for more than one year
                              (long-term capital gains).

                                   Dividends paid by the Fund during the fiscal year ended December 31, 1994 which are not
                              designated as capital gain distributions should be multiplied by 100% to arrive at the net amount
                              eligible for the corporate dividend-received deduction.

                                   The foregoing information is presented to assist shareholders in reporting distributions
                              received from the Fund to the Internal Revenue Service. Because of the complexity of the federal
                              regulations which may affect your individual tax return and the many variations in state and local
                              tax regulations, we recommend that you consult your tax advisor for specific guidance.
