I like shooting balloons with my bow. I also like shooting cans of soda that were shook up. And clay pigeons. You guys have anything that's fun to shoot. I need more ideas for practice :tup:

Watching a 2-liter pop bottle explode in your scope when you're 800 yards away is pretty fun.

People say tannerite is fun, but I've only tried it once and I must not have mixed it up enough cause it didn't go boom.

Exactly what I did yesterday! Took the 7 mag out to make sure it was dialed, 3 shots and 100 inside 3/4", 3 shots at 200 inside 1.25". 2 Jugs off sticks at 225, and 2 jugs freehand at 150-175. Shes dialed.  :tup:

It is gratifying to see those things explode after a well placed freehand shot!

watermelon are pretty fun, plus they make the whole area smell nice for a while after.
“Far better it is to dare mighty things, to win glorious triumphs, even though checkered by failure, than to take rank with those poor spirits who neither enjoy much nor suffer much, because they live in the gray twilight that knows neither victory nor defeat.”

Add red dye to give it even more dramatic affect...
By my honorable conduct as a hunter let me give a good example and teach new hunters principles of honor, so that each new generation can show respect for their god, other hunters and the animals, and enjoy the dignity of the hunt.

Calling an illegal alien an 'undocumented immigrant' is like calling a drug dealer an 'unlicensed pharmacist'.

Any container under pressure.

A friend that distributes for drug stores brought some boxes of  shaving cream to our shooting session. That was a fun day.
