Milk jugs full of water
Wine bottles. I recomend wearing eye protection.
I like to use balloons..the air moves them a bit and i know that they have been hit instantly..great for longer distances or even fill with koolaid
Old wooden clothespins on a #9 wire at varying distances with all my rifles.they spin or fly to pieces. Fisherman 14 what about the broken glass? Freeze some 2 liter bottles and cut them out and shoot the ice it you want to see stuff fly.Good shooting
Alabamsoutlaw-
you just put a tarp under the bottle and clean it up easily. But it can be a little dangerous so shoot from a pretty far distance.

Agree with the ballons, my wife is not a hunter but has enjoyed shooting my youth compound at ballons stuck onto my targets in the back yard. Apples and pumpkins go along with autumn, when I am usually spending more time shooting and were always available from the garden and backyard. Shooting a soda can around with a .22 (with a good backstop) is also plenty of cheap fun and a good way to practice target acquisition.
Balloons, water bottles, clay birds, silhouettes, soda cans.
Stale cookies or crackers. The birds clean up the mess and appreciate it.
clay, matches, those exploding targets you can buy, starlings if it is legal in your state, rats
c-9 christmas lights they make a great noise and pie tins are fun too
i agree with the milk jugs
pumpkins
rotten eggs, small pieces of quarts and granite, pine cones, hickory nuts, tomatoes, apples, jugs or buckets filled with water, pieces of sea shell, .223 casings.
Prairie dogs
A local gun club has an Easter egg shoot every year. Decorate the eggs, run a string through them, and hang 6 at 200 yards. Blast away. Fewest shots and shortest time to destroy all eggs win. Fun with a wind. Found out that factory .204 Rugers go right through the eggs that were boiled too long. Would use Varmint Grenades next time.
GLASS OBJECTS ARE NOT COOL!
STUPID IDIOTS!
Necco wafers...cheaper than clay and biodegradable. Agree with many other great ideas: balloons, paper plates, clays, potatoes, water-filled beverage bottles, aluminum cans, etc. Bring a trash bag to clean up the mess, then lock'n'load and have a great time!
Want to really have some fun and wake up the world?

This stuff is LOUD!
toys, electronics, animal targets (duh), clothes
Want a challenge?
Paintballs
those rice cakes my wife buys for my diet
Baseballs. We race them with a .22 semi.
Often my son will have a party and one of his college buds will leave some cheap beer in the fridge. Shak'em up and let the lead fly.
Do the same but with golfballs.
Also the stickers of dry wall cut up into squares they explode into white dust with a rifle at 100 yards. By the way stickers are the pieces of laminate dry wall under a skid of dry wall so you can get the fork of a lift under the skid. Next time you go to home depot grab one and ask if you can have it. They will usually let you have it.
Muslim terrorists if you can find them.
Hmmm...how can I say this?...
?Something about males of our species whose behavior indicates otherwise?
I had repeated negative experiences with "law enforcement officer" who was otherwise confused as well. Thought his Brittany was a Springer. Thought he wanted to go duck hunting. Guess it was a spelling error.
clay pigeons, pop cans, milk jugs filled with water, golf balls,squirrels,eggs, and I've tried the small propane tanks but all they do is hiss and shoot propane out of the hole, but it is still fun to see.
DON"T shoot old tires with a shotgun!!! My buddy and I tried it, we were dumb enough to try it, sure it was a blast until the BBs started flying by us!!! At least I have learned from my dumb times....
My favorite is a fly target with ten house flies on it (free from 6mmbr.com). Good for a 100 yard challenge. I also used to have fun with bricks set on fence posts out to 600 yds. You don't have any trouble seeing a hit.
Ceramic times are pretty fun too.
steal some barbies from your sister clean up kinda sucks
Taliban.
pond turtles
Someone in my hunting club once shot one of those propane tanks for lanterns...All I can say is, DON'T TRY IT! lol
Terrorists
milk jugs full of water
Once in a while we would get a case or two of really cheap soda, and use those.
And the milk jugs at long range.
old rotted vegtables are good street lights and street signs are bad
frogs and chipmunks, those robins that eat all the crawlers in your garden, and big old plastic jars they put pretzels in, shotgun em at 40 yds,
I use balloons, milk jugs full of water, pop bottles full of water, water bottles, anything I can find, but recently I have really enjoyed hitting old medicine containers (the orange bottles from prescription medication comes in) full of water with my air rifle I really don't know why though.
I have heard a container of shaving cream is really cool to hit too.
I'd have to agree with knestle, golf balls are fun to shoot, especially with a .22 Then you get to see how danged good you can shoot!
Light bulbs are fun.
