Shooting jugs of water.... fun!
I went out today and shot some jugs of water with my .470. That really is fun, especially with the larger containers of water. I was shooting them at 50 yards. As some of you have done, it would have made a great little video to share. I have the camera and the software to put a video on my computer, but where is a good spot to upload it so that I can share the experience with others online?

Been shooting them for years, along with the 1lb. gunpowder containers.

The most dramatic splash I ever instigated was a 5gal. jug at 50yds., shot with a .300Wby and 150gr. Hornady Interlocks (factory ammo).

The cap went about 50ft. in the air, and the water looked like the mist at VicFalls.

Hi Spring,
Take a look at the video section on my site. There are a few videos there that will interest you.
Take good care,
