We used empty Magners cans on the meet and I must say that the target production was a lot more fun then raking up broken clays out of a field :rolleyes:

Trebor extra strong mints make good reactive targets, they vanish in a puff of white dust, and they are less than 50p a pack where as the chalk 1inch targets cost a lot more!

I cut a potatoe into small squares , of about 10-15 mm and chuck em on the lawn . Then take me time and pop em one by one , cause they`ve been thrown , there all over the place and no two shots are the same

Thats a great idea Buster,

 

Problem round here is the gulls and blackbirds would have em before I got a shot off

damsons/plums/small apples etc on the top of hazel sticks !!!!!

 

the target is about the same size as our quarry kill zone.....and they are biodegradeable and therefore environmentaly friendly !!!!!!!!

 

keep em coming lads

Rabbits and magpies are not bad either and magpies are also biodegradable :good:

extra strong mints really cheap and create a small dust cloud when hit scatter them about plus they are a really good size i think

blackboard chalk sticks 19p a pack and they explode

And for the ones using either a .177 springer or a HW 100 we have the ultimate plinking target if set up at about 25 yards. As seen on a target range in Wiltshire.

If you shot at that with a HW100T it would wind up match wood

Clever bunch those Germans eh??? Shoot at a plastic bog with a German gun and it turns into match wood.

I like slugs and snails. bit of pest control included

Do you wait until they stop or just shoot at them in full stride ?? I suppose with a springer you would have to aim well ahead of them and let them run into the sot. Not an easy thing to judge, but does make it more interesting I think.
