This one I'm pretty sure they just showed the one he actually made the shot.
22plinkster freely admits that it sometimes takes several attempts before he gets it right, so it's not like he's trying to put anything over on us. He just shows what is possible.

Still a good shot, but the majority of the work was setting up the gun. Give that same gun to a competent shooter (the one he shot, all properly setup for 1000 yards) and I bet they could hit it too. These kinds of "trick" shots don't impress me much...but his fast (and accurate) shooting is a totally different story for me. Those I'm definitely impressed with.
He also said he couldn't see the target through the sight. He shot with both eyes open which caused the dot to be superimposed above the target.
