Some of the various things I have shot over the years
Potatoes, tomatoes, ears of corn, pumpkins (the day after Halloween) cans of tomato sauce, oranges, apples, cans of pop, cans of Pam cooking spray, cans of expanding foam, shaving cream, bags of flour, milk jugs filled with water...both liquid and frozen, phone books, mini propane tanks, a 4 lb roast that was on clearance at the grocery store, eggs, a kids big wheel bike, an inflated car tire still on the rim, and a Ford Fiesta.
Some of the more fun/interesting ones out of all that were the expanding foam...hit it with a 12ga slug and all of a sudden there was just a huge cloud of that crap in the air and almost like slow motion it fell to the ground. Shaving cream was kind of the same way. The Pam was probably the coolest and messiest though. Hit it towards the bottom of the can with a rifle and like some crazy trick shot cowboy thing, the can flies like 20 feet in the air spinning and spraying out. Can hits the ground and theres this cloud in the air that won't dissipate, just slowly falling. The walk over to pick up the garbage was a nightmare, the grass was slippery as hell from all the nonstick spray.
While not a really unusual target, it is very cost effective. Paper plates and a can of spraypaint. I just use a piece of plexiglass with a 4 inch circle cut out of it, lay that over the paper plate and give the paint a spray...instant target center.
