Favourite plinking targets

For me, nothing beats empty drinks cans.

For me, nothing beats empty drinks cans.

At 150 yards maybe.

Parma violets or refreshers at 20 yards in my back garden. Hit them right and they go in a puff of smoke. After an extended session you can then try and hit the wasps they attract.

My empty eye drop bottles.
They jump yards and it is a form of revenge!

My shooting accuracy has definitely improved since using Polo Mints as a target and are my first and only choice these days, I use no other.....Never busted one yet, they go straight through I kid you not......

[Brickhill]

Used shotgun shell cases.
12, 16, 20, 28, 4.10 all good. Shoot 'em end on or standing up.

Some good ideas there. Looking forward to trying them!

I believe you, but then again I've won the Mr. Gullible world championship 5 years running.

Heck at what distance ? what air rifle do you shoot and in what cal ? also do you shoot with open sights or are you using a scope if you are using a scope what scope do you use ? If you are using one of your BSA superstar's on open sights with the bisley wasp pellets you like to use then i can understand how you are achieving this, Well must go i think i have just spotted Elvis Presley flying a UFO with michael Jackson sat on his knee,

I am using a Baikal IJ-38 open sights, care of a great deal with thisdonald, a regular contributor on this great website, at 30 yards. Marksman pellets, scrubbed and washed thoroughly, dried and sprayed with Pledge, then carefully selected by the Biro pen gauge method. A well respected observer reckoned they were all fliers, but, I don't believe him......
