Thing To Shoot Comments
Nerf Balls They don't hurt if you get hit with one
Hard Boiled Eggs They shoot far and fast. Lubricate them with Pam or cooking oil
TimBits Most of the time they fit perfectly. Use the ones filled with jelly
Wads Of Toilet Paper Makes a very nice splat when used wet
Water Balloons Make sure that they fit the barrel perfectly. You may want to cover them in duct tape so they don't burst as soon as they are fired
Tangerines They make a nice splat
Confetti Try this one at parties
Mud In A Bag Long range and leavs a mark
Cow Patties MOOOO!
Full Beers These things have to fly FAST to blow up, but it's worth it!
Snowballs Great for getting a litte bit of a advantage in winterwars....
Tennis Balls Don't shoot 'em at tennis players during a game
Bouncy Balls Put them in front of the potato in the barrel and aim it almost straight up. Soon bouncy balls will rain down from the skies!
Glow Sticks Cut the tops off of about six glow sticks( we had a 2" barrel on ours). Insert them after the potato, gently, with the cut end up. Fire at night and you get a 30 foot cloud of surreal glowing mist. When it settles on bushes it is very weird looking.
Crab Apples These babys shoot similiar to paintballs : fast and messy.
Onions They fit in the barrel better than potatoes and they shoot further and smoother but it stinks up the gun.
Golf Ball You'll need to have a gun with a VERY small barrel to launchthis, but DAMN does it go far!!
Lemons I found it works well.
Clump Of Grass Pull a clump of grass out of the ground - make sure it has plenty of soil stuck in the roots. Shove it down the tube, and fire. Great if you can't find any fruit....
Rags Soaked In Gasoline Shove it down the tube and fire the gun. Fireball launcher!
Hamburg This stuff really splats.
Coke Bottle Tops Cut off top of 20 oz bottle top...rap in tape around base to make good seal
Caps Off Areosal Cans Just take one and shove it on the end. It's cool when they make dents in ceilings =)
Tracers Did this with model rockets. Ever seen the little plastic balls that you can get out of the gumball machines? There aregenerally two sizes. Small and large. When filled,with a liquid and then "kinda" sealed, they make great "heavy duty" paintballs. I would strongly suggest something waterbase.
Light Bulbs Simple incandescent bulbs (or LEDs) and cheap battery provided illumination at night.
Corn-on-the-cob Raw COTC works perfectly in 1.5" barrels. cut pieces about 2" long. They get a bit sticky, so you may have to clean the tube. But wow, do they go!
Frozen Oranges Use with 3" PVC. Do NOT shoot these at people, I've putone through 1/2" plywood from 50 feet.
Golf Balls You have to wrap them in damp paper towels, but about 25 feet out of the cannon the paper towels fall off and the golf ball keeps going....
Full Bottle of Pepsi (glass) Need fairly wide barrel, and it does go far,but makes hell of a shattering sound.. Awesome. ifyou tube is too small, your screwed. Too big?... justadd some duct tape around the bottle.

Raquetballs Bounce like hell when shot on a wall
Crushed stone -1/2" in diameter Drives your neighbors crazy when it hits their tin roofs!

Rocks Hurts like hell!
Hardened Play-Doh Make into balls, let dry, cover with soap/hand cream etc.Goes far, and makes a hell of a bang and explosion
Shotgun Pellets-#4 With a 6"-1" gun I've shot a duck. Just put a some 1" styrofoam down the barrel first and pour in about 4oz of pellets
Potato with arrow through it Ram down potato like usual then push a hunting arrow through from chamber end. Don't shoot it at people.
Iceballs In winter make a snow ball and dip it in a bucket of water , then squeez it till its solid ice. Hop in the car and find some snowmen in peoples yards......Then blow their heads off.
Slime Find a toys R us store buy like 10 containers of that goopy slime stuff (I like green) and make a cup for it our of the bottom of a 20 oz coke bottle (plastic). Put the cup in first then dump in about a galon of the green stuff :). Find someone to shoot.
Steel Wool Spud Pin some steel wool on the bottom of the spud. Ram the spud down the barrel steel wool first. When you fire it off it looks like a meteor!
Peaches Great for shooting at seagulls. They go after em.
Those plastic soldiers with parachutes Reusable and very cheap.
Eggs/Paint Eggs Take an egg and poke a small hole in both sides.. Blow the yolk out through one end. Gum up one hole with hot glue or tape (weaker). Fill the other end with paint, glue, chalk, or any other creative materials wrap around with protective wadding (paper towels, etc) to fill up cannon chamber. Pull trigger and watch it fly! (SPLAT!!)
Wet Toilet Paper No Comment
Fireworks They ignite with the flame
Dirt Get really, really dry dirt and crush it into a fine powder. Load a bunch in it, use styrofoam or a potato as wadding. Makes a really nice smoke cloud.

Bottle Rockets Remove the stick and cut a hole all the way through the potato. Insert the rocket into the hole (it should fit tight) put one drop of gas on the end of the fuse. Put this in your gun spray, and whoooosh. When the rocket has burned out the whole thing will explode. Lots o fun.
Smoke Bombs cut a hole in the back potato that is a little undersized for the smoke bomb. Cut the fuse in half, insert the smoke bomb (fuse pointing back) put a drop of gas on the end of the fuse, load, spray and fire. Good to scare people.

Water I use the "Air-Launch" safer than a spud gun and water creates a fine mist.
Ketchup Put in stryofoam cup. Great for fake blood.
Empty Shotgun Shells If you have a small barrel, put some wadding down the barrel first, then put in an empty (strongly recommended or else you could have a real problem on your hands) 12-gauge shotgun shell with the brass end up so that it comes out of the barrel first. Goes a pretty good distance.
Frozen Tennis Balls Cut a little hole in a tennis ball, fill with water, put freezer till frozen. Should be right size. Stuff down tube and fire away. Note: DO NOT SHOOT AT PEOPLE!! Makes loud boom when hits something hard like brick.Shot right through friends garage from 100 feet away. Have fun

Soda Cans Filled With Wet Sand Increadible with a power spud gun...
Normal Potato (new method) First put your potato in the barrel, maybe 1 or 2 inches in. Then spray your propellent into the chamber, go real heavy and then put the cap on. Now push that solid Idahoe goodness down to its normal spot. This works because you compress all the air in the barrel and there is more oxygen to burn the more fuel, thus a more powerful shot with a good old spud.

Tie a knot so the potatoes don't come loose. Put both potatoes down the barrel and fire. The potatoes will spread apart and the string will act like a super sharp blade. This will cut through any foam RC plane and do destructive damage to a balsa plane. Great for taking out those water balloon dropping planes.
Rock Shards Crush up a rock and load into your barrel as much as you want. Like a shotgun when fired.
Cheap LED flashlights - night time fun! Use newspaper (or something) as wadding and stuff it down the barrel, and then turn the flashlight on and drop it in.
