If you shoot sub-MOA at 25 yds offhand with handguns, do not bother to read

[doc2rn]

I am like most I have my on days and my off days. I have gone out with my tack drivers and if I dont get the results I want by the 2nd round, I switch from pistol to rifle. If I still dont get the groups I want I try again another day. I would agree with a previous post, there are $200 dollar tack drivers for the right individual and there are $10k Anshultz. Both will get the job done if we do our part.

True Story - I once shot a 3-shot cloverleaf group at 25 yards with my S&W Model 1917. I have been "chasing" that group for almost 30 years now...

No distance reference with the photos, but if those are .38 or .45 sized holes they appear to be about a 2" group. If they were fired at 200 yards or more, they could easily be sub-moa.

Please tell me that is a joke. Please tell me that you really do know what that target represents, how it was fired, the distance, etc.

It WAS a joke. See post #27 from a month or so ago.

This whole thread has been a joke from the OP's first two sentences.

I've only been in the gun community now for a couple years but one thing that has always perplexed me is people claiming that they can shoot groups that are extraordinarily small compared to what is seen in real life. It happens in every gun forum. Somebody will complain about how they're "only" shooting 1/2" groups at 50 yds with their rimfires, so they need to find what is wrong. Then another's handgun will shoot 1" offhand standing all day long at 25 yards. The best part is, this type of consistent shooting does not exist in reality.

If he's been shooting for a couple of years and can't be bothered to do a little research into "reality", I have no problem helping him (and anyone else who wants to play) along. Is a 30 second internet search too much too ask?

okey dokie

Unless noted, all shot unsupported, with revolver groups shot double action:

25 yards, 5 rounds, stock 4" S&W 617 .22LR, 0.95":


10 yards, 3 rounds, DAO 4" 686, benched (bottom, 0.25") and unsupported (top, 0.26"):


10 yards, 3 rounds, Ruger MkIII, benched (bottom, 0.31") and unsupported (top, 0.23"):


15 yards, 5 rounds, stock S&W K-38:

Great groups!
