Did you find this way to use the image charts to create a bullet chart?: http://dealerdiagnostics.com/blog/2008/05/create-bullet-graphs-with-google-charts-in-7-easy-steps/

Using corecharts, you could probably get a similar effect using intervals:

Hi there :)

Thanks for the answer, about the tutorial, yes i used it, but there are some drawbacks
that prevent me to use it

First the API of the tutorial is deprecated, so i don't feel very comfortable using
it ;), 

Second the result is an image and i would like something more interactive, 

I'm going to try your suggestion about corecharts but still think that a bullet graph
in the google graph library would be awesome :)

Regards

Fernando

Yes, bullet charts are one of the two things that are missing in Google Charts https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Comparison_of_JavaScript_charting_libraries
