Maybe, but most pistol scopes are pretty low power with a fairly large

I dunno...I can hit a 12" pie plate at 100 yards with a 1911 with
standard
sights. I doubt it's be that hard.

So can I. We all make lucky shots occasionally. However, few can hit a
pie plate at 100 yards EVERY shot when shooting off-hand.

Context, again: He only had to hit ONCE. We don't know how many times he
FIRED.

Actually,
even a machine rest won't do that as the standard 1911's tend to scatter
their hits more than 12" at 100 yards inherently.

Hmmm...last time I tried, I did about three out of four. A .44 Mag

And if the pie plate
is moving at 80 MPH, the odds get MUCH worse.

See remarks about Sporting Clays....yes, we use scatter guns, but the
targets are 6", not 16 feet.

I don't think Doug Koenig could do that with any consistency and he's a
lot better shot than you or me.

You'd be surprised. Shoot the moving poppers at at IPSC match some time.
