    Normal humans need not try this. 1000 yard balloon target with a S&W 629 Classic DX revolver. Seen Jerry do the same with a 9mm revolver years ago. Jerry just celebrated his 66 birthday maybe a week ago on FB. The man is legendary.

    He shoots a 1" group at 50 yards with a revolver, I have a hard time shooting a 1" group at 50 feet

    But it took him 4 shots and he used a bag for support.

    I find this more impressive, but Jerry is still amazing in his own ways.

    Head size target at over half a mile (5/8 mile?) in 4 shots with a handgun and zero magnification..
    Seeing as there’s almost nobody here who could make that shot with iron sights on a rifle, I’m gonna go ahead and call that one impressive.
    Spotter or notter, that’s impressive.

    It technically didn’t hit the balloon. The balloon was popped due to spalling. The balloon is just there to confirm a hit on the plate.

    You think you could do the same @ 1000 yards with any revolver (no scope magnification) any red dot optic and any rest you want in less than 7 rounds? I'll give you 6 rounds to accomplish popping the balloon.

    I'm with you, Mag. There isn't a shooter here who could pull off the same shot with a pistol, same conditions. Jerry is a freak of nature, a collection of assets and ability to do things most humans cannot. And years and years of practice. I have seen no one who can match Jerry's abilities with a revolver, he is just amazing. And @ age 66?

    Spotter or not calling his shots and walking him on target....how do you sight a balloon @ 3300 feet with an optic with zero magnification, make corrections and hit the target using a pistol in four rounds?

    Just amazing.

    It didn’t come across but I meant it sarcastically.

    10-4. I thought about it after reading ur comment that it could be like flattering sarcasm. Like I said before, some times hard to denote connotation in written words or a statement.
