The original post stated the question 'Is there room for CO2 in target/competition pistol shooting?' - the basic answer, and I did say the the co2 fan boys would be along to defend their position, is 'no' - if it were the case, why were there no co2 pistols at the World Cup in Fort Benning, or were the world's elite shooters not made aware that co2 is the way to go?

If you are a club shooter knocking in 520 ish, well done, good on ya - if you want to cut it against the top shooters in the world, then you need to be on the same playing field, and this, I am afraid, you won't be doing with old technology. Of course, the shooter does come into the equation, but the equipment helps.
