    The guy is amazing. Not to take anything away from his shot but he didn't actually hit the balloon. The projectile spalling from his shot is what broke the balloon. Notice he hit a number of inches low left of the actual ballon. Still a awesome shot

    Practice, practice, practice. He gets a metric butt ton of quality reps in, and is obviously also blessed with some fine eye sight and muscle control.

    I wonder if he has insurance on his eyes? You know how wine tasters insure their tongue and/or nose, and some singers insure their larynx.

    Granted the shot was pure pot luck at that distance, and with that caliber. God, you're doing good enough just to see the plate at that range. But he still has to know the general ballistics of the round he's shooting at that range, in order to even get close to the POI. I've seen similar videos of the late, great Bob Munden pulling off 200 yard shots like that with Bond Arms Derringers and S&W .38 snub nosed revolvers.

    Not only can he shoot faster than any human being, he can hit what he's aiming at, even at ridiculous ranges! Who said that shooting a revolver double-action accurately can't be learned?

    Completely agree! Still an amazing shot too get to the steel in the first place. I dont know if i could judje 150ft of hold over in 2 shots.

    Love the leisurely time of flight to cover 1000 yds. Surprised no 9x19 fanclub members have stepped in to say how it would deliver superior energy to a 45 at that range. lol

    Well ya know, being the virtual powerhouse the 9x19 is. At that distance it would be like taking a kick from a bullmoose to the chest. If said bull moose was of the termintor/hulk variety of animal lol.
