There are two things that are considered. One is the tesselation which smoothing is one. The other is the registration that is used. Using -target Something only specifies the smoothing target (if doing smoothing in mris_preproc). If you want to spec a registration target, you need to first run make_average_subject (which looks like you have done). Second, you need to run surfreg for each subject specifying your average subject with --t. This will create ?h.MyAverage.sphere.reg in each subject's surf folder. Then run mris_preproc with --surfre MyAverage.sphere.reg
