Target's aim somehow to find justice (10)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

magistrate

'justice' is the definition.
(I know that justice can be written as magistrate)

'target's aim somehow' is the wordplay.
'somehow' is an anagram indicator.
'targets'+'aim'='targetsaim'
'targetsaim' anagrammed gives 'MAGISTRATE'.

'to find' acts as a link.

(Other definitions for magistrate that I've seen before include "Court officer" , "Judge" , "Court head" , "Dispenser of justice" , "Capital of Ethiopia" .)

I've seen this clue in The Telegraph.
