Best BB Gun Targets
Posted by Ricky Taggart on May 31st 2023
Spüt Targets[/a]. We've seen tannerite, which is an absolute blast (haha) to shoot, however, it can be difficult to find, rather expensive and somewhat dangerous. Also, it won't explode when shot with a smaller caliber firearm and definitely not with a BB gun. We've also seen splatterburst targets, which are okay, but much less visible at long ranges than Spüt Targets.
These targets were just released online a few months ago and will be coming to sporting goods stores this summer! They are already quickly gaining traction among rifle shooters as a favorite target for long distance shooting, yet it is a little known fact that they also function extremely well with BB, pellet, air and high-powered airsoft guns. Each target is made from a piece of 'honeycomb' cardboard that is filled with 2 different colors of powder that poof out of the back of the target when it is shot. As long as the projectile shot at the target travels with enough velocity to penetrate one thin layer of cardboard, the shot will burst one of the 121 individually-sealed pockets of powder resulting in a highly visible puff of color. In fact, using a smaller bullet like a BB or a pellet is ideal for shooting these targets because you will burst fewer pockets of powder with each shot and will be able to shoot each target upwards of 60 times before running out of powder.
These targets come in packs of 4, including one target of each color option and a free H-frame! Each target is good for a full day of shooting, so we think that $24.99 for 4 of them with an H-frame is a pretty sweet deal. We'll attach a link below if you want to check them out!
