    However he does it, it's SERIOUSLY impressive and definitely something for other shooters to aspire to. It shows what dedication, hard practice and commitment can achieve when partnered with natural talent. As with all sporting achievements, I love to see it done even if it is beyond my abilities. It inspires me to better my own shooting and reminds me what fascinating and talented creatures us human beings are.

    Well done that man!

    A .22 Hw 45

    My next pistol will be a .22 HW 45.

    I'll never be able to shoot as well as Lou, but maybe I'll narrow the gap if I shoot WHAT he shoots!

    Congrats, Lou: excellent marksmanship!

    A bit of background information, that may add a bit for non-pistol shooters.

    My UIT centrefire pistol came with a 50m test card that had three holes in it, no more than 3/4 of an inch apart. This was an automatic 0.38 special pistol. Some of the top shooters could keep 12 shots in 2" unrested from the standing position at 50yds.
