No hard feelings, and I didn't believe it myself. The range was a guess, but 10 people (all seasoned shooters) verified that it had to be at a minimum 200 yards. Most said it was closer to 300. Some said it wasn't that far, others said it was further. It looked like a dot to me, but looking through a scope I saw what it was. 6 people verified the hits. Believe it or not, it doesn't matter to me. I have 6 witnesses. I don't think I could hit it that many times out of 7 again, but I could hit it again I'm sure.
I have never joined a competition because I didn't think I was good enough, but the other guys I was with said that I would do very well, as they had been in competition and knew what the level was. I like to practice long range shooting with my 1911, and I was shooting on the same range as the guys with the scoped rifles. I also shot at the verified 75 yard range and was able to hit a small propane bottle several times.
I think I'm going to try to compete now that I've been told about the level of competition.
You might be interested in Silhouette pistol matches that shoot at 40, 60, 77 and 100 yards at the offhand position. A Thompson Contender is usually used. There's Rimfire and Centerfire divisions. You might find a NRA Bullseye match somewhere. Call the NRA and they have a list of sanctioned matches. I subscribe to a NRA magazine called Shooting Sports USA. They have all the matches listed in the back.
