Give this a look if you hate pumpkins. I note the 2006 winner was named "2nd Ammendment"

I shot a grapefruit with a .454 Platinum Tip once. It was 260gr. expanding to about 1.0 (I'm guessing) and travelling at 1,800fps for 1,870fpe.

I would have taken a picture if there was anything left.

The nearest pieces were about 30 feet away and only about 1.5 inches in diameter. The juice became a momentary fog. There's a pressure wave for you.

Shooting stuff is fun.

Pumpkins are fun, shot some yesterday, also fun is cheap shaving cream like Barbisol

Nice job! I wish I had someplace close that I could try the same thing out. Thanks for the pics.

can'd cream corn makes quite the mess when hit with JHP. Did that a few weekends back. Next time I'll take the camera.
