Target dummies in the firing range XP

[Kio Kurashi]

I seem to no longer gain any xp from the Target enemy and I haven't beaten any of the quests for them. Did it get patch or do you not gain any xp after awhile? I'm level 46 FYI.

what level is the dummy?

[Kio Kurashi]

he's lvl 11

you should probably get to uvhm and then go back to the dummy

If you beat the game, then everything in that playthrough scales down. Move on to the next playthrough.

Alright I'll do that.

Nothing in the game really "scales down", and it doesn't really have anything to do with completing the playthrough ("beat the game"). The XP that you get for killing an enemy changes depending on your relative levels. If your level is higher, the XP starts dropping, until you get no XP at all. If you're level 46 and the dummy is 11, then, yeah, you're probably not going to get any XP for killing it.

FWIW, the same is true for mission XP. As your level increases above the mission level, the XP that you will get for the mission drops.

You can try the dummy in TVHM, but you're probably not going to get much XP for it there either. It will depend on the dummy's level. If it's somewhere around the mid-30's, and you're level 46, and your level increases from there (which, of course, is the whole point of killing the dummy), then you're probably not going to get much XP for killing it.

It will work better in UVHM, whenever you get to that, because the dummy will scale to your level. I'm guessing that you'll have to leave Sanctuary and come back, or exit to the menu and reload, before the dummy's level will change.
