What non-standard "targets" have you shot at?

I've seen several mentions of ceramic tiles, but I had the good fortune to be the first to happen across an old discarded ceramic toilet at a local shooting area once.
It's amazing what 12 ga. 00 Mag. will do to the bowl; even more amazing what a slug will do to the tank. It looked like there was a small explosive charge inside. If you ever get a chance to try it, stay back at least 10 yards and definitely don't forget eye protection; porcelain chips spray everwhere. (BTW, the area was a dump, so I didn't have to clean up.)

Try gallon milk jugs filled with cheap jell-o. (Use half the water it works better) It ain't ballistic gelatin, but it does go "SPLAT" good.

As much as I disliked it, I served as part of the UN Peacekeeping force in Somalia. Your comments Bishop, highly offends me. While getting sniped at, rocks thrown at me, dealing with disease and famine, the blue helmet was a big enough target. The last thing I need is my fellow Americans sniping at us. Bishop, your statements are crude and dipicts the stereotype of pro-gunners.

Dare say it to my face or any of my fellow Rangers.

Hey, y'all-- bad taste or not, it was obviously a jest, so if you're offended, please take a deep breath and consider if you really want to say so publicly or if it might be better to take it email.

This stuff takes fun threads and makes 'em... not fun. Let's leave the politics for Legal and Political threads. There is not one person here who would not clap his hands and cheer when seeing the hydrostatic results of a direct hit on a large piece of fruit or a cheap can of spinach (yech!) from a high-powered rifle at 100+ yds! It's fun! Shooting's fun. While the issues of the politics can be divisive, the FUN of things like reactive targets should be one thing, at least, that pulls us all together!

I am only going to say this and no more.
The UN "Peacekeepers" that come into this country will not be American. They will be from other countries to do our Governments work. To have the US ARMY or other force against its own people is illegal.
The target was in jest. What is wrong with some of you? If we can't laugh at ourselves then what can we laugh at?
