Seeing as a few other people have posted challenges (coin challenge, pop can challenge ect) I decided to post one of my own. I had always been interested in how well other peoples launchers would go with this.
Ok here it is: How many milk containers filled with water can your launcher shoot through? I'm talking about this type of milk container:
The wider ones that are roughly the same thickness would also work.
I can't remember how many mine could shoot through, but I'll try and get around to trying it when I find some decent ammo.

Ive gone through 3 3liter ones from about 5 meters at I think 120psi with a size 4 fishing sinker. It kept going and landed in our dam(30meters away) but I think it could do at least 4,
maybe even 5.
Is there going to be a set distance and psi? If so I'm keen to give it a go

I'll do it tomorrow with My Sprinkler valve Pneumatic Sniper. i haven't used it in a while so I'll definitely give this a go.

Nope, just line them all up in fron of your gun and fire away! Lol I'll be lucky to get through 2.

ok so I can get all nasty
point blank style?
I'll probably try to make a dart of sorts, I think that will perform better than a marble.
Rightyo I'll give this a whirl

Nah, I think I'll just use a marble.
We should have different categories, including a BB Buckshot category.
Categories:
-Single Projectile (solid).
-Darts etc.
-BB's and Buckshots.
It's only a suggestion, but I like it. It would make it more interesting to see results. Or just have a friendly contest and compare results at the end.

Count me in too, does it matter what ammo we use? If not, i will finally have a use for my 'tank busting' rounds.

Maybe that's a good test for my discarding sabot round, I 'll give it a go with a couple of my guns

hell lets just blast them with what ever 8) I'll have to rig up some kind of brace(probably tape) to stop the end ones from getting knocked down.

Count me in for sure,i'll get one of my pneumatics up and running well and see how many things i can get a marble to go through.

Use whatever ammo you want, whatever gun you want, whatever range you want. This is more a way to cause carnage and show off your guns and ammo than a really serious competition.
