70. Are you stating an EXPERT opinion,
or just an opinion?

It's not "impossible," and not even that difficult.


I am an avid shooter and shoot over 300 rounds per week in my International Defensive Pistol Association (IDPA) league.

I have a standing bet of $100 offered to anyone that I can hit a six inch circle at 100 yards 9 out of 10 shots with my Dan Wesson 10 inch barrel .44 magnum with open sites. I have won over $600 dollars in the last two years.

I shoot rifles twice a month at distances of up to 400 yards, and consistently maintains between .25 - 1 inch shot groups with hand loads.

Let's say those boats were 200 feet apart, moving the way they were, I don't think I could make my mark 1 out of 10 shots.

I've driven around my families ranch in north Texas shooting wild hogs (on the run) from moving Jeep since I was 13 years old,
so I can give a VERY educated opinion.
You are partly right, it's not impossible, it's just damn hard!
