It's hard to beat a target that rings well when hit. I have a bunch of steel that makes more of a "smack" sound when hit, I don't know if it's the steel itself or the method of hanging but I like to hear it sing!

When I was a kid we would set out strike anywhere matches and try to light them without knocking them down with BB guns. Maybe it would work with an ml.
In the markdown aisle at Wally World I bought a set of screw on bottle caps with valves in them like a basketball or football has. You can take an empty 2 liter and fill it with water (food color optional) put one of these caps on and pump it up with an air source like a bicycle pump, compressor or air tank and it explodes when you get a solid hit. If you nick it the thing spins around spraying water.
I love old bowling pins.. Hang them or just prop them up.. You can hand paint then like Redcoats or leave them as is.. Endless possibilities. They are cheap and don't take forever to set up or pick up. Clays on a cardboard sheet are fun too.. melt a hole in the clay with soldering iron and tie it to the cardboard.. (various ways to do that).. Mount one clay or a dozen and shoot away.
Good topic by the way!!!
