Reactive Air-Gun Targets! 

Cool stuff - but I got a good chuckle when I saw pellet holes in the wall and base trim. Awesome, easy enough to fix too!

Thank you very much for the inspiration. I'm gonna use magnets for the rubber wine cords instead of the nuts/bolts. Great video, keep it up.

Years later, here I am, pretty cool idea using those synth corks! My first idea, as you mentioned having to put them back up was: Why not, since you already got the bolts, nuts and washer, design some kind of retaining string/wire so that the targets can still fly off, but you wouldn't have to run all over to find and pick them up. That way you could simply pull on the wire or string and reel them back in. Could maybe be achieved via hot-glueing the string on to them, at the back, so that you don't constantly hit the spot, should work nicely.

Thsnks. Can't wait to see your targets in mass production, on Amazon. You rock!

Very Nice and recycled cans... all have multiple usages. Turing them around and placing a target inside with the lid would work too.... quick and easy. Well Done!!! A thought; fishing line thru the cans to suspend the lids inside the cans...

That's one hobby that would keep me excited for about 20 minutes. Then I'd be looking around at what else I could shoot...

Awesome video! Fantastic ideas for targets and great looking too! Thanks for the ideas!

I was lookink to make some action targets.Glade I saw these. Like them all.

Strips of plaster board taped to a soup or bean can make an excellent reactive airgun target they look like they discharge plumes of smoke when hit.

I'm so happy to have found your video! Your targets are so nice! Thank you for this awesome idea!

Nice targets and great ideas. I will definitely use them.

Neat idea, with the cans you could put the small ones under the top rail for some more targets as well.

Please Note: The reactive rubber wine corks can actually be shot up to around 12 times each before they need to be discarded and replaced...when using .177 pointed, domed or round nose air-gun ammo. Thanks, AGW.

That mini gong hanging from the chains is pretty cool

very nice video and good reactive target ideas!

great target ideas! nice clean looking builds too. :)

I like them all, thank you for sharing your ideas.

Very cool and creative targets!! I will be trying these soon. Thank you for sharing! Subscribed

Thanks for these great ideas. Well done.

Fantastic Video Dude & Awesome Targets. Keep up the great work. Nick.

Great Job Man. Ty for the Ideas!

Nice lookin' targets Al.

those targets are so cool and creative man. congrats

Thanks for the Ideas, I like the second one you showed with the big cans, and the one with a metal plate on a chain. Video's a little long but I can understand your proud of what you've made.

good targets! lot of fun

10:20 A few holes in the plaster and skirting board there. 😁

Great video buddy.

That is all very cool looking shit you made there my friend. I like the flat black especially.

Awesome idea for some fun targets ! Keep up the great videos as I am subscribing .

Exellent innovation I liked it and thumbed up

Awesome ideas here!🙏🇺🇸👍

Wonderful ideas, maybe some small neodymium magnets mounted on bolt heads could hold the cans flat or upright. My ¼ inch button magnets came from a craft shop. Very cheap too. Just like those solar lights, I have two, one did explode the steel battery inside. If you use wood screws with your cordless drill, a button magnet will hold a can anywhere!

Good stuff!

Really cool targets, might make some similar myself, the gong was the best one :)

nice job i just got my first air rifle i cant wait to copy what you done very nice job, thanks for sharing.

This is excellent. Thats whats great about youtube, you can steal all the ideas of others and use em youself! EXCELLENT! Thanks!

These make good slingshot targets too!

Attach a string to them,and the stand so you don't have to chase them all over the place!

Thanks for sharing.

Great idea!

cool stuff 👍

Thank you very much, glad you like them!:-)

Ok, I got my dozen wine corks…. I’m prolly a bit too drunk to shoot straight now,,,, but what the hell !? Lesh load ‘er up !

Your video make me feel like to go plinking just righ now.

Thanks again Nick...very much! New videos coming soon. Will be a combo product share and new DIY plinking Target stand I'm working on. Happy/Safe Shooting, AGW.

nice targets

"when the wind blows it can knock them over, so I put these bolts and washers on" - shoots inside.

Good stuff! Subbed.

nice but i can see you have missed a few times in your house and hit the wall lol

Super cool!

I like how someones house is in the firing line behind the target. you must have very understanding neighbours haha

Cool ... I was just about to recycle a bag full of wine corks at Whole Foods!

Great targets. And I've been throwing my wine corks away. Now it will be double fun.

Hey there, so as soon as I first saw your setup I thought you were going to say that for the corks, you were using 3/8"- 1/2"drive magnetic socket holder strips.... thought if you put small piece of metal or opposite polarity magnets in bottom of hole in cork, you can pretty much not only guarantee a dead on shot and not just a graze knock it off but usually also practically just drop them back on and they will set them selves or at least make it a lot easier with the magnets? I think I'll make a set myself today using your cord idea as the target and I'll send a link....

Get some small springs for ur smaller green can set and maybe they will bounce back for you

How did you paint the face targets? Those look great and I would love to do that.

Where did you get the two inch steel disc? I taped together 6 Lids from those large cans and it makes a nice Target but does not have as good of a sound as the solid steel.

Great ideas. My wife would use me as a target if I shot my rifle in the house!

cut slots behind each cork, put them all on a screw, that way you can shoot them, and instead of flying away, they simply turn to the bottom and you can shoot them to reset them

This is epic! Don't know why I hadn't seen your videos before. Was your air gun going through both sides of those cans?! Josh

I exploded a Firebird target in my house . I will NOT be doing that again . My ears are still ringing .

fasten a fishing line to the bottom of the gong type target have it go straight under the bottom wood and all the way to you so after you shoot it you can pull line to stablelise the target

I have been looking for the 3" reactive target stickers you mentioned but am having trouble finding them. Can you post a link to a good site to obtain some of the items you suggest.

Scott Perkins

Thanks to everyone with creative suggestions and ideas!👍

Nice targets. I am too lazy to put together targets like these.

Nice, but you need to build a target box out of 1/2 inch particle board like I did. Plus, I guess you don't have a basement as it looks like you live in Florida. I place various targets in my target box and I can get to around 45 feet away. All my shots, even the ones that miss, are contained in my box. My wife would kill me if I were shooting towards a finished wall. Good luck..

What gun were you using?

The 3" Birchwood Casey reactive targets are available at amazon.com.

You're single right? (Shoots indoors, holes in the walls...🤣🤣😂)

What pressure are you shooting your QB 78S at to get 33 fpe with 18.1 JSB .22 pellets. That is 900 fps. I shoot mine at 1500 psi and cannot equal that. Did you do other mods and make a video of it? Thanks.

looks like fun but what about the lead splashing about?

Glue the washer on the bottom

What are you using for your pellet trap?

lol love how there is holes in the wall because of him shooting xD noice

Great ideas mate, my home made targets were not this inventive.

Nice targets bro, but, your wall is needing some restauration :>)

Air gunner. Bad eyesight. THE IRONY!!! DX Lul.

Great targets you could sell those if you are using cheap materials and put the money into your gear .

So what can we glean from this video? You don't shoot skeet but you likes the wine...

you should do a video on some exploding targets

To all that have watched, "liked" and provided suggestions...Thank YOU very much!:) Will soon be better and posting more videos asap! Happy/Safe Shooting, AGW.

Got spackled after the butt chewing from the Wife!

drill a slightly smaller hole and let the thread slightly grip them.

Maybe you can help with this I have a small shooting area (10 Lanes) on my property people I know and some of their friends come to shoot on. I'v been trying to come up with a target system Alternative if they don't want to waste alot of money on shoot and see targets, and doesn't require them to walk out on the range while its hot, or have to wait for others to stop shooting to be able to reset the targets, I've purchased metal auto resetting targets but anything high caliber damages them severely. Maybe you can come up with something, or think of something budget friendly I haven't thought of . Thanks (if you have time) these are pellet rifles of calibers up .45 and .357. but the majority are .17 to .25 cal

nice, put a metal sheet on the table top

I tried this with a row of 5 wine bottle corks but couldn't hit a damn thing after drinking the wine!

during the inside Demo , I did see a few holes in the wall, get the spackle out

how do you call the reactive target on your wall ? bro get a better backstop !!!! nice video

how many holes do you have in your wall...lol

nice idea and video... can you create an improvement on my glass "shimmering" night time Targets? see 'Real Targets That Shimmer/ Halloween in April'(I wonder who's gonna start... $no, I better not even say it!)😉has anyone noticed.. ALOT of target ideas lately?

i like them too much to shoot them. do i see pellet holes on the wall? MOMMMMMM!!!!!!!!

iwould of added a 8" string so i donrt chase them ,but thats me

So many holes in your wall. lol

Great Video.... Great ideas...... and love the holes in your wall from shooting in the house. : ) Either your single or you have One Very Understanding wife... or did "she" put those holes there? lol : ) My wife would "kill" me if I shot in the house..... basement, Yeah..... house.. NO ! Keep those Great Idea videos, coming ! PS: Any particular type / brand of wine to get those synthetic rubber "corks" ?..... must be a cheap brand... all the better wines use real cork... Yes? No? Thanks for your efforts.. Well done.

In the house? Lmao!!

what kind of gun

shouldnt really shoot inside....i can see where you've shot your wall, other then that great targets!

Shooting lead pellets indoors? Airsoft is better for indoors.

Regarding your last target and your fear of a ricochet coming back in the direction of the shooter and your fear of such a ricochet inflicting harm, rest assured that it would be a physical impossibility for a lead pellet, after striking a target such as yours, to then ricochet with enough power to inflict harm to the shooter. For every action, there is an equal but opposite reaction.
