  • 50 Yds Can Be Quite The Challenge

    micro swingers

    With the handgun and iron sights, or a rifle and that bipod?

    The only handgun I can consitently hit a small area with at 50 yds is my S&W 629 .44mag.

      Heck, I can just about see the target.
      On the internet, the number of posts do not correlate to actual knowledge.
      The notch is supposed to be there as well as the bulge at the front of the frame!

          50 yards with my XD or 1911 is a piece of cake.

            You're a much better shot that I am.

            3 1/2" swingers at 50 is a real challenge for me.

            6"? 8 out of 10 is average, but 3 1/2" micro's?

            not so much

                  If you magnify that about 4 more times I might see it clearer. I can make it out now.

                    At 50 yds, my sights completely cover a 3.5" target with a pistol, so it's pure luck if I hit it. Now, with a rifle, different story.

                    I can hit a milk jug at 50- 100 yds with that 629. That's close enough for me

                      Definitely some good shooters here at KahrTalk. :4: I'm humbled, not even in the same league.

                        I really like shooting a .45 at a milk jug at 100 yards. I don't always hit it but where I shoot there is a 30 foot berm and you san see the bullet splash to tell how you;re doing.

                        It's funny, that 230 gr. moves slow enough that after you shoot you can almost count 1 mississippi before it gets there. I was watching a hickok45 video yesterday where he shoots at his 80 yard gong testing a Ruger 1911. They zoomed way in on the gong and I swear you could see the round going down range. Too cool.

                        Here it is: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CAZ5EYxpl2o look around 16:08 in the video.
                        The only thing better than having all the guns and ammo you'd ever need would be being able to shoot it all off the back porch.

                          Not really. Just a lot of practice. Both are out of 5" barrels. With my 4" 357 3" groups and smaller have been shot.

                          My dept used to require handgun quals as far out as 50yards. Now handguns quals are 25 and in. Beyond that it is shotguns and rifles.

                            Like I said, if shooting 4" or smaller swingers at 50yds is a "piece of cake" to you....you're a lot better shooter than I am.

                            Gimme about 6 months, and I'll be at about half the cake.
