Shooters are forever looking for a way to spice up their target practice, and there is a new product out called the Ballistic Cube that will do just that. Just Shoot Me Products and its parent company, Ballistic Technology, are the brainchild of Jeff Kruse. A metallurgist by trade, Kruse spent 25 year (on and off) tinkering with the idea of the Ballistic Cube. When the Marine Corps wanted a target with unpredictable movement to help train its snipers, Kruse took a polymer material, added other chemicals and elements, formed it all into a military spec 4-inch cube and, voila, a resilient target that reacts violently when shot was born. When I asked Kruse what makes the Cube move, he got a little technical, “The unpredictable movement is formulated by the velocity and size of projectiles in conjunction with a high speed solidification process of a slurry of chemicals and elements that when combined provide an amazing resilience of elongation, yield and tensile qualities.” Basically, “it is an elemental reaction,” he finished.
