Thanks for the video. I enjoy shooting long range with pistols as well.

rcmodel said a while back, the max deer hunting distance is that where all shots hit a 9 inch paper plate.

nice shootin,

147 gr vs 180 gr next. After seeing the Lucky Gunner video on pistols shot at 100 yards, the heavier bullets shot better while the light/fast stuff like .357 Sig did terrible.

Looks like fun! How in the world does one pull off an 80" hold-over with open sights? Looks like WAG to me. Am I wrong?

Understood. What was the maker of that range finder, again?

Saiga308,

Have you considered investing in an old High Power with the tangent style sight? It would be perfect for this type of shooting.

Seem both scattered rounds about equally. Handguns are impractical at those ranges, at least for me. I have a Ruger SR40, the only thing I can compare it to is a Taurus G2. The Ruger is way ahead of the G2 in perceived quality, innards are much more substantial.

I would enjoy doing this with my pistol caliber carbine.........but NOT with a pistol. I'd be there all day trying to hit that plate.I enjoyed watching him trying it though!

I like it when some elaborate test is set up and then the shooters use the cheapest garbage ammo they can find. It takes out the notion of accuracy and reliability and puts everything on luck and inexperience

Maybe you should take the time and show everyone the proper way to do it.
