Sort of along those lines...

It's fun to move stuff with bullet hits. On a pond bank we used to "make" the tin cans jump into the air by hitting "under" them. The displaced dirt will propel them a foot or two with a .22 RF. I had a 10 ga. single shot and we were shooting a metal 30 gal. trash can. It had a big cupped dent in it catching the charge like a catcher's mitt, not penetrating the metal. With a 2-1/4 oz. charge traveling some 1200 fps it would pick that can up and toss it 5-6 ft. like a big tin can. THAT was enough force to move it, AND it moved me pretty good too! Just like the guys said, a force and opposite reaction force.
