Blasting Targets - literally
My son just purchased a case of exploding targets and is having a "blast" with them. They are binary explosives that you mix in a bottle and use the bottle as a target that explodes big time when hit by a bullet. They are safe if used correctly, but as with any explosive, can be dangerous if used in the wrong way. One guy put the bottle in a gravel pile and was hit by flying gravel and another guy shot the bottle from close range with a pistol and was hurt. It is supposed to be great for long range shooting because there is no doubt when you hit it. The stuff is $100 a case. Check it out at tannerite.com.
