1911 Ballistic Challenge We all know these devices shoot at 7, and 25 yards. Let's test the equipment and see just how good they are for serious work at 100. If you don't have a 1911, feel free to enter this masochistic event with any other service grade or carry type piece. Extra points for style. (5 rounds)
100 yard standing (stand on your hind two and shoot like a man)
100 yard benched (think of it as using cover; fence post, truck hoods and even shooting benches with sand bags are acceptable).
50 yard up close and personal division for those that don't have access to a 100 yard range. (stand on your hind two and shoot)
