But did he get 10 indians ?? ...Since you like 45-70s -one of the early westerns [Stagecoach ? ] has a wonderful scene of indians attacking a train . One of the indians fires ,reloads and fires again with a 45-70 'trapdoor' Springfield at a full gallop. It's lost to most viewers of course !!

Not very impressive. Looks like he was shooting a .22lr.

This record should read "ability to cycle a lever 10 times in 2.04 seconds."

Whoopee.


Well, at least have an OK day Smiler

Actually it's a 1873 winchester in 357 magnum shooting a 38 special reload of a 125 grain bullet at about 800fps. Not that it really matters, 'cause a 22lr wouldn't help the feat a bit. The page is for speed runs related to Cowboy shooting competition and it is quite a feat. Not killing actual indians or stopping Cape Buffalo. Just because it is a specialized display does not detract from the ability of the shooter.
