As much fun as cans are, I prefer some sort of plastic pill bottle. They will take 3-4 times the hits that a tin can will. They also give a more consistent report since they don't get blown out so quickly. Over all more satisfying to shoot IME. 1/2 the time with tin cans (after 30 or so shots), you can't tell if you hit it or not because there are big gaping holes in the tin. You don't get this problem with the pill bottles as the holes kinds of "self heal" and close up to the point they're smaller in diameter than the pellet.
Also, a fun game to play is to make a shelf that four tin cans (or pill bottles) will sit on. Drill holes in both the tin cans and the shelf. Put string through the tin cans and the holes in the shelf. Make the string long enough (10-12") that the tin cans can fall off the shelf and swing. Now set the tin cans up on the shelf. Shoot one off the shelf and then try to hit it again as quickly as possible before it stops swinging. Then move on the the next one and repeat.

Get a bunch of plastic bottles with lids....fill with water and add an Alka Seltzer tablet or two and put the lid on. Wait 15 min or so and shoot it...even with a lower powered air rifle makes an awesom explosion !!
