I haven't shot anything since friday :(
But my favourite previous random object shooting was a small clay statue that a friends sister had made but didn't want, which I kindly disintegrated with the 308.
I use clay targets for practicing longer range stuff ... put them out in the paddock on a line of pinetree stumps
If you can hit a clay repeatedly at range then you'll be fine on a deer pig goat or Wildebeest ( @ebf )
sometimes the 223 round go straight through them if you hit them dead centre ..
theyre also great for practicing offhand with the 22 .. start in close and work outwards to 25 yards
makes a freeking mess in my paddocks but :(
Pieces of gib make a good target board
Usually just a box or tree with a spot of tail paint for a target, but did use a cow that gotten bloat and died recently on the egde of the rubish hole to test out some home made shotgun slugs.
Shoot pinecones ya muppet (spray them fluoro orange if you must) :PQuote:

Theses were a cheap buy after halloween. Cans of fizzy drink are another favourite :D
I've got a mate who's a bit rough on his gear, he sighted his 270 in on an old TV out in a paddock then on some reeds in a pond, near enough he reckons, the rifle is covered in rust but the bugger always seems to get his deer or pig!

Shot my first deer today, does that count? Kinda random as until this point it's been hard going. Anyway, stoked.
Certainly does Boulderman. Good work. Are you posting a report?Quote:

Er, couple of random 8's and 9's snuck into my usual 10's with a little Taurus 9mm at the Lafayette Range in Yorktown VA last Monday night.

bottles of water or fizzy bottles shaken up work well at long distance. or rabbits at 250+ are a great target with the 223
From a few months ago - Dell 2550 (2U rack mounted server) and another desktop computer became targets for 7.62x39, 7.62x51 and 12 ga:

Mate that is a fairly big grouping on those computers.
Oh for sure, groupings weren't of particular concern at the time - computers make a horrible mess, do not recommend as targets.
Was almost going to shoot a hedgehog that was mugging around down my driveway tonight. In a more enjoyable note, I put my wife's cat in front of it as the dog don't do hedgehogs due to past experiences ..
Quite the bail up,
After the first pounce the cat now knows why the dog don't like them:thumbsup:
Mr Hog lives another day.
Ha ha ha ha the mental image that contours up is hilarious.Quote:
