What are your favorite (cheap) reactive targets? I was thinking of some ballons filled with helium and baking flour. its cheap and should be fun. what do you guys use? tannerite would be fun but at $8 a shot its too rich for my blood. |

Try Range Bombs. I have used them on everything from pellet guns to 308. The smaller the round the more shots you get. A rangebomb with a 22 is good for more than 10 hits. A 223 will give about 5 hits. 7.62x39 is good for 3-4 hits. www.rangebomb.com has a cool mpg file on it. |
damn! you guys are paying full price? |
Works for me!

if i ever saw one at the range, you hade better believe i'd shoot at it! someone would make a killing if they made those in 100yrd 200yrs (1000yrd for the.50 fans) poster board targets. |

bowling pins. Most bowling alleys will give them to you. The most I had to pay was 50 cents a piece. They will suck up an amazing amount of damage before you have to throw them out. 50 rds of 40, 21 rds of 45, some 00 buck, and 3 slugs before it ripped open. Could have still shot it, but we had a butt ton more so why bother. |
you got a better price? |
I think I'd go smaller. More like 1 or 2 liter pop bottles. *note - be sure to fill the pop bottles at the range from a gas can. *note - It would really suck if the pop bottles melted in your car and the gas leaked out. |
LOL Red_Beard!
Well, we tend to buy in mega bulk quantities at which time Dan Tanner tends to offer substantial discounts. It's all based on how much you get. |

Bowling pins........They are FREE Fire Extinguishers.....I get about 300 of these FREE at work every year from the comapny that services ours and gives the traing twice a year. most are aluminum, but I do get a few that are the steel CO2. Steel plates........These are FREE from work too Why spend money on targets when you dont need too |

Works for me!
