In my hillbilly science experiment filled up a 5 gallon plastic gas can with water and shot it at 200 yards with a 143 ELD-X factory load out of a creedmoor.
In your professional opinion how tough do you think that would be on the bullet?

Have you tried a 2 liter Mountain Dew?

Naw didn’t have anymore jugs. Have to try that next and Coca Cola then graduate to water with food coloring.

Who can afford to shoot at a $25 gas can?

Tape a half pound or so of tannerite to a 5 gal can of gas and this could actually turn into something interesting.

It’s still going as far as I know. Guess I will have to get more scientific next time and put more jugs behind it.
Needs to cool down first and I need to save some jugs up. Might have to put a package of Bar S hotdogs in front of the water jugs to be more “scientific.”
