I call bs on that video. I would have to be there in person and see it to believe it. And there is no way he figured out the hold in two shots if he did really do it.

Great. I'll provide the .44 magnum and six rounds. You shoot at a mule deer sized target and if you hit it twice you can name your $. I get to name mine if you don't.

Careful with that. You didn't put a limitation on sights, err optic.

Is it possible? Of course. Does a person exist that can do it freehand, 2 in a row out of 6 shots with any optic??? Not without lottery winner luck.

In the world of probabilities I feel real comfy with that bet.

More hype to sell his pistol. Total BS story about the homeland security need.

Elmer Keith shot 10,000s of rounds through a 44mag.
Bob Munden has done the 600yard shot with a 44mag an a ballon many times at shooting expos.
It seems impossible but it is not. Also not very ethical since the velocity and pounds of energy at that range would be pretty low.

I'm not confident enough to take any bet on it, but I sure would like to try it.

Now to find someone with the pistol...

The hype was great entertainment to me. I can't fathom people falling for that nonsense. But I'm thrilled that they do.

Oh we can set it up. I’ll even let you use my Henry 44 mag rifle. Freehand any optic you want. But I won’t open end bet with a rifle. We’ll bet a bottle of our favorite scotch and talk nine kinds of sh#* about the rest of the forum.

And the funniest comment after the article is..."So he finally demonstrates that it can be done in front of a crowd of well established people in the community, yet the Tier 1 armchair operators are still claiming foul".

I believe I watched Bob Mundon Shoot a balloon at 500 yards with a 44 mag revolver iron sight on American shooter tv show I think years ago. It took him a few shots to hit it, but he did.

He also did crazy stuff like shooting Asprin at 100 yards or splitting playing cards etc. Byron Ferguson shot two clay pigeons out of the air with a long bow shooting two arrows at the same time. If Jo Blow at work or school or the lease told me they did it I would probably say yeah right, but there are some people with a talent/skill that so far surpasses what the average joe can do it is unbelievable.

I can guarantee that the guy shooting the .45 couldn’t see the target with those sights. How can you hit a target you can’t see?

Far shots with irons, on a pistol trick.

Keep the front post on the target (unless you need a wind correction) drop the rear sight down to create elevation.

100 yards with my 5" 1911 is very fun, and repeatable.

But 100 sure aint 600...

What guy with a 45? If you can see it with your eyes you can see it with iron sights no? I would assume they just pick a hold such that the ramp/blade don't obscure the target. I don't know, I don't shoot 500 yards with my rifle much less a revolver, but that doesn't mean there are not people who could do it.

We have plinked with my Glock 10mm at 100 and 200 yards. I can get a few hits at 200 yards also with a factory Glock. With a few mods, and the right ammo, going past 200 would certainly be doable. IIRC, Keith used a 250 hard cast bullet going pretty fast in his 44 mag. There was some "debate" over this shot and topic. But I do believe it's possible, and with a little practice, I think repeatable.

During a Tiger Valley sniper comp, I hit a 4" pepper popper plate at a lasered 139 yards with a G35 in 40 cal. I hit it on the 3rd shot. And yes, it was on video. The 1st shot went low and I made my adjustment up. The 2nd shot went just left of the plate and the 3rd shot dropped the plate. All 3 shots were shot slow fire, and I could see my impacts in the berm behind to know where to make my sight correction. With a little Kentucky windage, you can get some longer range shots with a pistol if you practice some doing it. (Why did I use my pistol, well, I ran out of rifle ammo!)

The second video is a knucklehead selling a .45 pistol by lying about a shot. You can’t put a .45 front post on a target you can’t see.
