100 yard shots with a iron site pistol

[armalitesheepdog]

This guy can seriously shoot some distance. Skip to near the end 8.39 for some impressive shooting.

 

[ancjr]

He's not normal.

 

[BigRed]

Many are more capable than they know.

Practice.

It takes a lot of practice to hit a shaving cream can dead center from 100 yards in one shot with a .22 pistol.

With my stock 10" Ruger MKII, 100 yard shots are really not that hard.

An M9 at 100yds is nothing.

 

[armalitesheepdog]

I dont think I can see good enough to even see 10 inch plate at 100 yards.
I think the flat shooting 10mm helps

 

[rooster]

Any of you been to a public range recently?

hitting a gong at 30 yards would impress me compared to most people

 

[Magyars]

I have a square foot piece of steel set up at 60 yards.
Usually I put a few mags or cylinders on it during a range session.
Iron sights, old eyes...I would guess my average is right about half.

IHMSA Bigbore. the ram targets are 200 yards out.

Still the guy in the lead article is a really good pistolero.

I use to shoot milk jugs with my Taurus Model 44 6.5 using my trucks hood as a rest at 100yds. Now I don't think I could see a milk jug with my glasses on at 100yds

The distance that I could shoot with my S&W Model 29 and Model 41 back when I was young was long, today, not so long.

 

[ancjr]

I have a 4" plates at 50 and 150 yards. I can hit the 150 all day long with my stock 10/22 and 4X scope. With a pistol, I'd do good to get the 4" at 50 30% of the time. If it were a 10" or 12" it'd be much easier.

I used to shoot long range...with my 7 1/2" bbl .44 Blackhawk........What can I say, I was reading a lot of Elmer Keith back then....but then again it was .44 magnum....not 10mm.. I did see Bob Munden shoot a .38 derringer at a target about 100 yards.....but that was Bob Munden....

Therein lies my problem also. 3 or 4 in the same hole at 7 yards or even 10 yards is not that difficult but I don't see the sights or the target that well at longer distances. An optic makes a huge difference where the sights are concerned but nothing sharpens the target up.

I'm no Hickock45....but I can still hit 150-200 meter shots with my longer barreled (5") revolvers!
I built a Glock 34 and am using a KKM Precision 6" barrel...and it'll shoot 100 meters all day long.
At lot is due to one's skill set, developed over time, as well as what is their preference or forte`...

Handed a guy with Parkinson’s my 5.7x28, which he never even seen before. I had made a rest for his AR that mounted to his motorized wheelchair. Using that rest he hit the 8”plate on the 4th shot and about every other shot after that was a hit for the magazine of 20. Gong at 100 yards.
He was good.
Thinking of you Harry.

How big is the targets at 200 meters

 

[PRasko]

Have we forgot about god? and the 1000 yard 9mm revolver balloon pop?

 

[Amishman44]

How big is the targets at 200 meters

We've got kind of an impromptu range in a long narrow clearing down along the river out at dad's farm and we have an 18" steel plate that we can hang from a tree limb!
None of us shoot 100% at 200...but we can make it clang once every few rounds!
At 100 meters...it's a fairly easy target to hit!
