Fun targets

[J10]

I had just cleaned up the Tannerite containers, spray paint cans, soda / beer cans, playground balls before this photo. It's usually a very colorful range!

I might be partial.....but I prefer AR500.

Good point, nothing like the sound of a bullet hitting steel. Use the heck out of my Bobcat Steel target!

NICE!!! I'm jealous!

Nothing beats watermelons. Gunny Ermey's favorite targets lol

Had couple of cans of the foam insulation go bad and wouldn't spray. They come apart and spray nicely when hit with .223.

golf balls are a favorite , also shaving cream cans

I've had the idea to fill up a couple of old milk jugs with red Jell-o and let them setup for a few days, then blast them. I imagine that a milk jug filled with Jell-o would explode awesomely when hit with a 1" slug or some .44 hollow point.

I was thinking last night. We had a bucket of dry wall mud soar on us once. It made an extremely messy target when hit with a 30-30 from about 100'.

If you always wanted to be a big game hunter but never had the time or money then you can switch over to shooting animal crackers. A ten yard shot is about the same as a 200 yard shot for scale. Lots of fun and no worries about cleaning up the mess.

I pay my nephew to come up with trash built robots which I pretend are zombies!

When being mature, my friends and I shoot standard paper targets.

One of my favorite things to shoot is pots and pans I'll go by dollar store or goodwill and buy a box of assorted pots and pans for 5-10 dollars and enjoy them all day

 

[vwarren]

I really like to hang the pans from their handles so they move around a lot!

 

[drgnrobo]

bowling pins ,zombie targets,paint cans, anything that blows up on impact

 

[Nitehunter500]

I enjoy shooting our homemade dinger targets

I take a veggie/soup can, fill with water, place a small square piece of wood on top of the can and stack another can with water on top of the wood.. shoot lower can and watch upper can fly.. yay.

Sounds like everyone has their own favorite things to shoot! I especially like the animal crackers and charcoal briquettes ideas. I have to agree that steel is always fun to shoot also. Some Bobcat Steel is on my list of things to buy once I graduate and get a big boy job making real money!

we used discs that farmers discarded when i was in shooting sports. at 50 yards with a .22 it sounded like a gong when you hit it. that was a blast.

I bought some paint balls and golf tees to try out this weekend.. wasn't quite as fun as you would think. Even at 30 yards and a 4x scope you can barely see the paintball. That, and it won't blow out paint like you would hope either.

Other then that, I enjoy walking tin cans all over the range, as well as bottles of water. Scraps of clay pigeons leftover from shotguning, empty shotgun hulls, golf balls, etc. Those cheap .22 swing targets are fun as long as they last. They don't tend to take many shotgun slugs or 7.62x54R though.

I managed to get a hold of 6 cases of bowling pins from a friend that managed an ally?

i get bowling pins also. they r a blast and not messy. most bowling allies will give them away
