Anything thats harder then what your shooting at. Fill a piece of pipe up with cement and shoot it at a junk car/abanden building/fence post, whatever.

well its a pneumatic marble gun and i have some 1/2 ball bearings that ive shot through a door but its not very impressive looking. i thought of shooting a tv if i could find one but it might take me i couple more garbage days to find that. what would it take to make a good impression of you that i have nice gun? im limited to what i can shoot at because i live in a highly populated area by the capital of texas and all my neighbors complain about every thing.

*tries to think of something impressive to shoot*

Large - like .5-1 liter - chunks of ice might be fun. I have no experience shooting them with small-bore spudguns, but .22lr decimate them pretty well.

Shooting a water container - maybe a pop can - with a 'frangable' projectile might yeild impressive results. I reccomend using a chunk of potato or the like.
Again, no experience with small-bore launchers.

I think he means shooting at it not shooting it out of a cannon.
thoes 1 L bottles fit in 6 inch pipe.

for small bore shoot phone books. they are quite useless any ways.
for large bore shoot at ply wood

My favorite damage pics were done on and old satellite dish ,and old ,metal chair ,aerosol cans, half inch plywood. Potatoes make large holes in the plywood. I have some old discarded aluminum cookware I shot hole in as well.
Ocasionally even a marble gets through the cookware and and old license plate. The trees in my shooting range are pretty scarred up with permanent damage.
