well ya'll might not believe it, because heck i hardley do. i was comming toward the end of the range session and only had a little ammo left, 10rds to be exact. and after all the rds i had fired that day i still hadn't tried the "long" range stuff that i have been wanting to try.
Conducted With xd service model .40 and wwb 165gr fmj's
Shooting at e-tyoe shilloutes
1)so i started at 50yds from the prone position.i didn't know what the poi would be so i fired three rds center mass, then i fired two rds where the head and the shoulders of the target meet.
Result: the first three rds landed in a 4.5" group in the lower right corner of the 4 zone. this impressed me because i think that i am an average handgun shooter.
the 2 rds that followed landed center mass. in the 5 zone. so i have the 50yd figured out.
2) i then went out to 100yds. i had 5rds left and decided that i would use 4 rds to get the dope and figure everything out and my last shot would make me or break me.
Resulti aimed where i though it would hit, landed in the dirt, aimed higher, so forth and so on, i really wish i had a spotter, so one the 5th rd i had figured out that i had to aim at the top of the head to get a hit of anykind. when i went down rane i hooped and hollered for 10 minutes, i couldn't believe it, i hit it alright and hit it a little high of center mass in the 5 zone.
here are some pics to show the results, and if anyone has any questions about the legitimicy of the claim there is a retired Major that witnessed the whole thing. as well as the sand torture test. i am still in shock!
