Firebird 50 BIO Target Reviews

How loud the boom is if you stick two together it makes it a lot louder

Nope

If you stick two of the fire bird targets together it makes the noise, boom and flash louder and better

The ones that did work where awesome

I bought 3 pack of 10 i have shot the last 10pk yet but only half of the first pack detonated. Only 3 of the second pack detonated.vI give them 3 stars because the one that did detonated where awesome.

Oh and the ones that did actually work where really loud. AWESOME. BUT 8 out of 20 is all that worked. And i believe that i paid 24.95 a pack

The two that actually worked were excellent, but the other eight were dismal. They were stuck to a sheet of 3/4 inch plywood, supported by 2 in ground 8 inch posts. I would like to think that would be solid enough to be effective in backing these things. Still, only 2 of them were loud enough to be heard at 40 yards. The rest of them varied from a little wisp of smoke, to a tiny pop, with a little spark or two. I would have purchased more of them if they had all worked.

I’m not certain how to make sure they all work correctly. That is what I would do if I could.

The ones that work are loud and really fun.

One of them worked the way it was intended to. It was really fantastic to see, and hear the one that did work.

Consistency

Only one of these things worked. The remaining units were varying degrees of disappointment. They ranged from absolutely no sound nor smoke, to something akin to a moderate hand clap (and there was only one of those) with a small puff of smoke about the size of a football. Out of the entire pack of them, four made no sound or smoke, and two made tiny poofs of smoke and the sound of the projectiles hitting the targets was louder than any sound that was made by the detonation of the targets. Only one worked properly and it was not enough to make it worthwhile to have wasted any sort of money for them at all. Huge disappointment.

This is the first time I have used them. They are a lot of fun to shoot.

Nothing.

Good explosion, decent amount of smoke and some pretty good sparks, VERY FUN to shoot.

1. Make them so a hit explodes the target, I have many times hit a full round (.22") inside the outer edge of the target and it does not ignite. 2. Make them smaller. 25 to 40 mm. (but maybe a touch thicker to allow for a good bang) 3. Make the inside section dayglo orange/yellow/green .... the part that needs to be hit to ignite. Leave the inert outside black. 4. Sitckier backing, like the gel/gooey stuff not tape, it gives way too easily.

They are great, but the area that needs to be hit in order to ignite them is quite a bit smaller than the disk size (in my case 50mm). So, you can hit them and they break up a bit and often fall off (tape is not strong) and then you have to go find it and reset it. Also, they have to be hit pretty hard. I hit them with my .177 and it's 50/50 if they ignite, the .22 at 30 ftlbs does it each time. But!!!! They are super fun and all my friends REALLY enjoyed shooting them. I am more an FT or paper guy.

Goes off every time

Nothing

Easy to stack and set off

good report. like a Very Big cap from a cap gun. out in the desert with nothing to reflect off of but the barrel i attached it to it was not super loud but a nice bang and a decent smoke and spark show. i would be Careful with them but they are pretty low fire risk as long as you have a good 10 yard clear area around them.... i was only using a crosman 1077 CO2 gun so i had to be fairly close, 10 yards but it did trigger them easily.

fairly safe but not for use in a super dry forest, there is a fire risk with these. i use them in a very clear dirt area in the desert

Huge explosion

Too loud

I got both the 50's and 65's.....What a pleasant surprise!!!! Glad I didn't try them in my own backyard since the yard isn't big enough! You want to be more than 25 feet away when setting these off!!

Nothing....I was surprised and delighted with them just as they are.

I first stuck one on a 3/4" thick particle board with a smooth,hard face....it blew a 2 inch hole right through it! Lucky it didn't damage anything behind it. I next tried a sheet of 12 gauge steel for a backing-both materials produced good reports but the steel was only dented and not pierced.
