njc110381 Posted September 30, 2012 Report Share Posted September 30, 2012 I had a bit of a giggle at the range today. With me were some (very) experienced shots and the field was pretty remote. We were testing some new rifles and thought it would be fun to see what happens when a full box of Firebird's are placed on the backstop and shot. Even with my shady past and experience it was rather a shock - they knocked over a sleeper wall and sent a target board flying for several meters! And that boom.... Well it's just a shame that a camera can never capture the full effect. The targets were 90 meters away and the shock could be felt as well as heard! Check it out... If there were any other members present I have been asked by the sponsors not to name them or the venue so please keep the comments tidy. Cheers.

Frenchieboy Posted September 30, 2012 Report Share Posted September 30, 2012 Brilliant mate. I'm glad you showed this video as I am thinking of getting some of those Firebird Exploding Targets to try - You have made the decision a lot easier for me. Thanks!

njc110381 Posted September 30, 2012 Author Report Share Posted September 30, 2012 That was a whole box mind fb, shooting them on their own is pretty good but I think there were twenty of them in there! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Frenchieboy Posted October 1, 2012 Report Share Posted October 1, 2012 (edited) That was a whole box mind fb, shooting them on their own is pretty good but I think there were twenty of them in there! Fair enough, but even so that's certainly one way to make a party go with a bang! Very impressive. It was only just the other day on another video thread that I mentioned the Firebird Exploding Targets so your timing with this thread was prefect!
