Shoot and See Homemade Reactive Targets 

+Brad Griffith Glad it works for you :)

+Jay McMullan Thanks for watching Jay :)

No problem Mike, you'll find them perfect for illustrating things on Camera :)

Ah yes Neil Buchanan! He was a feature of my childhood too, although I have never been compared to him before! And card is card! Thanks for watching :)

+Perico De Lospalotes Thanks for watching :)

Thanks a lot for watching Chris. Have a look around the channel, might be more stuff you enjoy :)

+JammyGuns Thanks for watching :)

Give it a go and let me know how you get on! Thanks for watching :)

Yes its perfect if you want to show patterns etc clearly on Camera. Thanks for watching Nick :)

You're not the first to say it! :)

David Smith I wear it a lot! Thanks for watching :)

Thanks for watching :)

Thanks for watching Russell :)

Thanks for watching and subscribing! Merry Christmas to you too :)

Cheers mate. Looking forward to watching more of your videos in 2014. I hope to get out on my permission more in 2014. Due to work and family commitments I have not done as much shooting this year as I would have liked, I use an air rifle but hopefully will start pigeon decoying with a shotgun in 2014. Rgds. Russ

Thanks a lot Tim! I would like to go hunt in Scotland at some point so I will bear you in mind. Happy New Year! :)

*****

Yes it does, especially when newly fitting a scope, thanks for watching :)

I have found using thinner sellotape works well as it is less likely to warp as the paint dries. Also Matt black acrylic paint works best especially paint used for painting car bumpers as it doesn't flake as easily and gives a better shaped hole. Thanks for watching :)

+Max Nazistanman I could take a look but aren't they a little thick? Thin is better even the tape i used on this video is a little on the thick side.

+srspower I'm not sure, i haven't made any yet, just looking around now for different ideas, your method is quick and easy. What results have you found with different thicknesses? And keep in mind, I'm from Australia, i plan making some for the kids with the .22 out to 50m and training for myself with .308 at 500m+, not allowed steel gongs at the range i shoot, and reactive targets are definitely out of the question, at those distances even with my spotting scope (which isn't even that good), i can't make out the shot placement properly and have to wait for range close and drive down to take a look. I'm hoping by experimenting with these style targets (on the cheap) i can find something that suits my needs without having to buy another spotting scope. I notice just using your air rifle, it's making some pretty big spread patterns compared to the .22, what would hitting your style target do with the .308? Perhaps a heavier adhesive would suit my needs better? It's a pretty cool concept, thanks for taking the time to make the vid and to reply, i'll let you know how i go, Cheers from Australia

Why not make a video showing how it's done?

Well yes they aren't intended to stop the projectile! A safe backstop behind is a must.

Glad you liked it, thanks for watching ;)

Hence the versatility, you can make any shape or size you like depending on what you want to do. It is perfect for video illustration purposes. Thanks for watching :)

Devon Mcgill Yes it seems that rather than dealing with nuanced social issues relating to race Obama thought it would solve the problem if he banned a flag!

+srspower Obama didn't have anything to do with it. It was a state issue and South Carolinians chose to do without it since to some folks; it was a symbol of racism. In other words; this was a state decision and not a federal one. Personally, I could care less either way. However, you have to be fair to others, even when they're on the opposite side of some issues that you might support. Having said all of that; this was a cool video. Thanks for sharing since I just learned a new thing!!

357 Mag Guy 2015 Yeah i may have been overly simplisitic there, i guess i was referring to the statements made by Obama. And for me yes I don't have an opinion either really. In the UK it just represents the Dukes of Hazard! Glad you liked the video :)

+srspower :-) I used to live in Bexhill-On-Sea (near Brighton) and in Plymouth (Devon County) when I was a kid. When in Plymouth; I went to a school called Battisborough School. I miss it a lot. I'm pretty much like you, in that; I really could care less either way!! I've got more important issues of my own to deal with every day and can't worry about others right now. Overall, I try to stay out of politics since the sad thing here is that we have a two-party system and believe it or not; they're very much alike!! They're both full of BS and couldn't give a flying F... about the average citizen. Both parties here are controlled by special interest. It is very discouraging. I also lived in Geneva, Switzerland for 5 years and in a peculiar way; I wish I was still there. It is too darn expensive to live there though!!! Once again, thanks for your ingenious way of producing these reactive targets. I used to pay $34 for 50 of them on Amazon.com!! Thanks to you, now; I can do it myself and save some money!! I also reload my own ammunition, so I'll be saving a lot this year!!! Be safe & God bless!

+redwhitentrue That is my Air Arms s310 in .22 calibre. Thanks for watching :)

Nope!

So what no need to have a go least he gave a go what's wrong with some people

Yes it has improved since then! Building the layer up across the card uses a lot less paint too! Thanks for watching :)

***** no bother mate. ive just got my sgc and the vids with the loads and chokes helped explain a lot. cheers

That I am a fan of the Dukes of Hazard ...

I don't understand?

You know that was an argos catalogue being shot with an air rifle right? It will stop a HV .22lr let alone and airgun pellet!

@@srspower I was thinking more about ricochet and flying lose pellets and I'm sure you are aware that no pellets must leave your property,I'm was just thinking a bigger back stop wouldn't be a bad idea,that's all

@@clivewilson5258 Have you ever shot an argos catalogue? There is 100% no chance of a ricochet even if it was a .22lr HV let alone an airgun pellet.

I'm British not European.
