70 -80 yard hold over dang he was aiming at the moon

The fact that he hit steel at that distance is incredible and I am sure that a fragment is what popped the balloon but still that was a heck of a shot

I thought the same thing, but said nothing, since I'm fairly sure I couldn't even have SEEN the steel at 1,000 yards.

Truth is... if that was a human... that was a clean shot to the liver and kidney area and likely would have been fatal with 10 to 15 minutes without immediate medical care.

Yes, just like Tom Knapp was the best long gun shooter ever.
