Re: Fun but inexpensive things to shoot at.
I shoot in my back yard 99% of the time so pretty much anything goes except for glass or harmful stuff like that or anything that would be considered a pollutant.

Re: Fun but inexpensive things to shoot at.
I like to shoot those little orange clay b-b gun targets. They are cheap and vaporize pretty awesomely when hit with a .22!

Old left over paints, water based if I remember correctly(doesn't last long on target stand).
The shells cost more than the paint. $110-$126 per 20rnds

Re: Fun but inexpensive things to shoot at.
Used to do that as a kid.. we would take any of the half empty hairspray and paint cans laying around the house, and 1 can of wd40. Sray the other cans with WD, light on fire, shoot with a pellet gun. Works good, as long as you are a bit back and have a good 7 pumps in the gun. Should work the same with a 22.. just be careful of where, as it will pit fire all over the place, maybe even spin up in the air (aflame) for a good show...

Re: Fun but inexpensive things to shoot at.
When I was a kid, my dad used to go up to the Sylvania plant in St. Marys and get bags and bags of rejected light bulbs. Then, we would take them down to the camp and stand at the edge of a hill, and he'd throw, me or my brothers would shoot...our 20ga Toppers.

Re: Fun but inexpensive things to shoot at.
I shoot at pressurized bottles if I want a fun reactive target. In a two liter bottle, put in a cup of vinegar, fill most of the rest of the wau up with water. Leave room for a 1 inch layer of veggie oil, and roll up some baking soda in a paper napkin. Drop napkin onto the oil (don't let any baking soda touch the vinegar/water), put on cap, shake, and you've got a fun reactive target for not nearly the cost of a bottle of coke
Works great with a 22 mag, haven't tried anything larger. Had the cap a good 25 yards high on one shot."See, this side is well roasted; turn me on the other and eat." St. Lawrence

Re: Fun but inexpensive things to shoot at.
I have a welder and find scrap steel on construction sites.
I found some 3/4" thick steel plate about 12' X 12"
I was given a few pieces of 2" steel pipe
I got 4 springs out of a demolished dumwaiter
I got some 3/8" steel X 8" diameter rounds from my shop.
and made
I also got a piece of 1/2" plate which I cut into different shapes, some leftover pipe and some bar stock and made
27hand likes the steelOpinions are like anal apertures. They all stink but mine.
