handgun field positions 50-100 yards

[Savage Hands]

I have not tried shooting much farther than 50 yards with the Glocks or the 1911's. I do know that at some point you
definitely are way above target line with the front sight. Targets are actually blocked.

Typical premium 9mm only drops around 8 inches @100 yards according to some manufacturers.

If that. I've done quite a bit of shooting on steel out to the 150 with 9mm, it's not that tough to pull off.

Wish I still had the opportunity to shoot at extended distances. I would love to try this 'shooting out of the notch'/elevated front sight thing. I don't doubt that way is better, but I have been able to hit head sized targets at 140 yards, using standard 'equal height, equal light' sight alignment with a little holdover. It does partially obscure the target, but shooting with both eyes open still allows me some awareness of the target position.

Drop me an email sometime if you want to do some long range pistol. I have a secret spot that's around 40 min from home. Good for rifle too. Distances out to 900 yds.

Thanks, I sure will. That would be awesome!
