Has anyone ever tried making their own targets?

soda cans, stuffed easter bunnies that were on sale, cardboard boxes stuff with more cardboard boxes

I'd love to shoot coke cans and easter bunnies (we actually have a real one, but the wife won't let me shoot it), but we live in a neighborhood so I gotta have something fairly big or I either get a hole in the house (4 times now) or a nasty call from the neighbors.

And a damned sight smaller....and easier to fill too.........

Yeah, you're probably right, those bags might be a big much.  I just thought it would be a cool target when I saw them, you could paint big game animal silhouettes on 3 sides and have one for spots.

Did something similar to Sailor Dad, only I used the expanding foam in rabbit sized boxes, poked a hole just big enough for the nozzle to fit in and shot em about half full. Then wound waterproof gorilla tape on them. Worked for awhile, but got wet after some time, and lost effectiveness.

Jonathan...these Bags are 44x44x45 inches with the 4 straps for picking them up...so they are not much bigger than my Morrel Range Target I have...just deeper...it's up to you...let me know and I will get one....

Have just done 2 pics of the packing material targets. Should be coloured, then its better shooting.
