    It's a movie. Do you think he would miss? LOL, Wouldn't be much of a movie if he kept missing.

    It would have been interesting if in addition to what was presented, more time would have been spent asking Tom Selleck about the preparation he did for the movie with Mike Venturino, and maybe if Tom had ever shot the one Sharps he has. He has one of the three used in the movie, two working and one non-working props.

    Also, it would have been fun to have Dave Gullo try the offhand bucket shot. I would put it 50-50 he might have connected given the rifle was sighted correctly.

    I cannot see well enough to pick out a bucket at that distance without some glass to assist.
