This was actually a very cool episode. They, of course, looked into the phrase "easy as shooting fish in a barrel". Using both a 9mm and a shotty with some buckshot and a mechanized fish in a wooden barrel--it was indeed easy to shoot fish in a barrel. The cool part came when they realized how easy it actually was. Turns out that you don't even have to shoot the actual fish for it to die. The shockwave from the bullet hitting the water alone is enough to kill every fish in the barrel, regardless of where the bullet goes. I'd forgotten how many g's the shockwave registered, but they put 3 of those ever mythbuster-popluar shock stickers inside the barrel and one 9mm shot tripped them all.
Pretty cool.
