Mostly bullets into metal plates at various angles from front and back, and some neat shots of bullets in flight being hit by other projectiles. Also into glass and ballistic gel.

Am I right about some of the target material being blocks of ice?

I think it was ballistic gelatin. It looks like the pellets were being shot into glass.
