Or perhaps the .500 mag.

If you own that pistol and live outside of Alaska, your simply compensating for something.
Besides, I dare think that pistol would be as dangerous to the shootee as the shooter!!

Perhaps some enlightened competitive shooting enthusiast could explain the need for the calculator at the end? Would there not be some sort of automated mechanism for timing such an event?

I'm wondering what caliber he was shooting. Looked like a Colt Anaconda or Python .44 Mag or .357 Mag. He could have been shooting .44 special or .38 special. Hell, it could have been .45 ACP with full moon clips. I really couldn't tell though, video was pretty poor quality.

BTW-The sound is f'd up on that. Sound track is kind of delayed a bit from the video.

In the beginning they say he was doing 8 shots, so unless he was shooting the s&w 627 he wasn't shooting the 357 or larger. The last part he did 6 reload 6, so that I could see being 357.
