Non-veggies:
Shot a full 8 gram cylinder of CO2 (Crosman pellet gun propellant) once with a .22. glancing hit, small cloud of vapor, rocket-reaction from the groove cut in its side made it spin and fly off pretty good.
Pretty unspectacular. I'd rather have used it for its intended purpose.
And the usual: 12 ga shotgun shell hit in the primer with a .22. Just sort of a pop and the shot scattered around a little. Not much of the powder seemed to ignite. Once again, I'd rather have used it in the shotgun than as a target.
Distances? Oh, twenty-thirty yards maybe.
I seem to recall one of my sons showing me some kind of small aluminum empty oxygen bottle fragments whick exploded spectactularly from the remaining O2 in it. Apparently when the bullet hit, it exposed pure aluminum to the oxygen and they combined instantly in a big fireball. My memory's kind of vague on that one, but I'll ask him about it next time we talk. Anyone know what I'm talking about?
