Pumpkins are fun to shoot (not to mention you now have a use for that rotting Jack O' Lantern after Halloween).

Where I work, we used to get several cases of tool catalogs every year. Since one was more than enough, I'd take the spares to use as targets. You'd really be surprised what will and won't go through a case of catalogs (they will stop a .44 Magnum, but not a .41 Magnum).

I've also done a fair amount of shooting at used oil filters in the junk pile on my Grandfather's farm.

Finally, a couple of my great uncles used to put rat poison in their corn crib certain times of the year. They would then open the doors and, when the rats came staggering out use them for target practice with their .22's.
