While I'm super impressed with the shot he made, I'm also very impressed at how he dropped that moon clip in, without looking, from a good distance away from the cylinder. Like they were magnetized. Lol. ****ing miculek.

Ya! I'm at the point in my life where I am first starting to think I need glasses but a 1000 yards? How the hell can you even see the balloon? I really don't get it.

Jerry must be related to Chuck Norris.
1:09 is why I shoot. Love his laugh, epic.

Jerry is not human
You know I thought the same thing. I couldn't even drop that clip in like he did, never mind the 100 yard shot. [sad2]
It is designed for competition, pretty much by Jerry. It is for USPSA minor. The short 9mm cases make it easier to reload than long, skinny .38 Spcl cases.
Really, I think Jerry would be disappointed to hear that. When ever I watch him shoot, I want to grab my gear and hit the range

Kinda odd that he went to a 3gun match instead of defensing his revolver title with his new gun

His daughter and wife are awesome shooters too .

I'm surprised that a 9mm has enough energy to pop a balloon at 1000 yards. Although, it still has ~130ft/lbs at 500.. Impressive..
Why not?

9mm artillery.
I cant find the link but I believe he said something on the lines of 3gun is fun for him vs just pistol shooting.... I think he also spit out that he is getting older and the eyes are going and three gun is a littleless demanding accuracy wise????? I like watching and listening to Jerry he has many good things to show and say. He will be the first to tell you though.... practice practice practice.

Here's an article from 2010 where he says he shoots about 50K rounds a year and also talks about concealed carry. Man, imagine trying to carjack him or breaking into his house with his family there too! "Sorry officer, I know he was shot 45 times center mass, but we only had a few seconds to squeeze off some rounds"

I dont think he can see the ballon but can see the steel plate. He doesnt hit the ballon. he hits low and left and the fragments of the bullet hit the ballon.
I am still impressed with hitting the plate at 1000 yards. I am doubtful it was his first attempt at it and nailed it in 2 rounds..... That said he used 147gn bullets but does not state how fast he is pushing them..
Im going to guess he is reloading them to max velocity that he can achieve. He claims that the bullet drop is 150" from his zero. So the gun or sight must be zero'd at 500 yards ? Can you get 500 yards of elevation from that sight?
Im new to exterior ballistics but a quick look
with a 500 yard zero he would need about 170 moa of correction, forgive me if Im wrong?
does that come out to aiming 150' above the target....?
Im just jelous that he gets to shoot a pistol @ 1000 yards....!!!!! I loved to do that! hit or not be fun trying!

At what point does the bullet not have enough energy to splat?
