When I first read 22 Plinkster’s title that he was going to be shooting a .45 Colt through the center of a CD, I had a mental impression of him attempting the shot with a single action pistol. The .45 Colt is, however, the name of a pistol cartridge popular in handguns and lever-action carbines alike, and 22 Plinkster’s attempt with a beautiful brass-framed Henry rifle in .45LC is no less impressive.

I still thing my favorite 22 Plinkster trick shots are with his classic Colt Woodsman .22LR pistol , especially his impressive 500-yard shot.
