idea: biodegradable reactive targets

[lathedog]

Soylent Green is bio-degradable, but I hear it is in bad taste

Pumpkins and watermellons are biodegradable, and very reactive. Problem is, I usually eat the watermellon while I shoot up the pumpkins so I run out of targets.

Tannerite in a hole cut in the side of a pumpkin will cause giggles every time. Not as inexpensive as the pumpkins alone, but loads more fun.

Go to your big box home repair store and see if they will give you the strips of sheetrock that come between the palletloads of drywall. They're already in 3-4 inch strips, just need to be cut into squares and they make great targets.

Just be sure to pick up the paper pieces when you finish shooting.

I used to use armadillos-aka;mobile ballistic gelatin.Talk about reactive!! Now that I live out west, prairie dogs do the trick, although with a little less drama.We leave them lay to bait the coyotes. You can shoot cow patties as long as you use varmint bullets to stop ricochets.Grasshoppers if the scopes are good.
