    Default Fun Reactive Targets? Any Ideas?

    I'm heading to the range tommorow with one of my best friends who is home on leave from the 'Stan. He and I are hitting the range and I was thinking about finding something fun to shoot. Punching paper is all well and good but I'm just looking for something a little more fun. This is a private (read; extremely private...) range, and a pretty controlled enviroment. The sky is pretty much the limit as to what we can do. If we wanted we could roll a car onto the firing line and blast it full of holes but we're fresh out of donors for that... What I'm saying is with reguards to safety we'll be smart. Anything dangerous we'll shoot at 100 yards... .

    Just kiddng. But definitely open to any suggestions you guys have. Thanks fellas.

















    I was gonna try to mix up some balistic gel and play with that tommorow but I ran out of time. Maybe Friday.

    A little messy to clean up but full soda cans and 2 liter bottles are cool.

    Talk a walk around your house....there's plenty of junk around to take to the range and plink at. Just think - you'll be organizing your house and having fun at the same time!!

    Raid your closets of old teddy bears, playing cards, nicknacks, tennis balls, books, shoes, etc.

    Get a large mouth plastic jar. Very large. And fill the bottom with Mento's tablets.

    Insert a small plastic bottle of diet coke. Put the lid back on and close tight.

    A shot into the container will cause the Mentos and the diet coke to mix and react.

    I like your style. I already have all the ingredients. Now I just need a spot to do it. Will take vids as well if I find the spot.
