This guy can SHOOT. He's shooting a revolver better then any 1000 people with semi's. Now, to the "What I heard..."
I read he uses a revolver because he cant shoot a semi that fast. Hes actually beating the slide (The gun doesnt cycle fast enough for him to shoot that fast).
I also read he uses an 18 pound trigger, as anything less and he has to wait for the trigger to come back up.
This guy is f****n good. Proof positive that equipment, no matter how good, is NO substitute for training and skill

His name is Jerry Miculek. He's got this video out that shows his "secrets" or something.

Here's a sample of what I've read:

Ultimate Advanced Revolver
with Jerry Miculek
Reviewed by Duane Thomas

Jerry Miculek is the new patron saint of revolver aficionados everywhere. Simply put, he's the best revolver shooter on the planet, arguably the best who's ever lived. Now Miculek's revolver shooting secrets are discussed in-depth, by the man himself, in a video from Lenny Magill Productions titled "Ultimate Advanced Revolver with Jerry Miculek."'

"Ultimate Advanced Revolver" starts with Miculek standing seven yards from four steel IPSC targets, drawing from the holster and hitting each target twice, and we get to see the timer display afterwards. Miculek's total time, using a Smith & Wesson Model 27 with 8-3/8" barrel, was 1.61 seconds. His first shot broke at .77 seconds, which is a world-class draw in anyone's book. His average shot-to-shot speed was a bit less than .17 second. With a revolver. Those times would challenge most semi-auto shooters. Yeah, I'd say we could probably learn a few things from this guy.

Like most very good shooters, Miculek has strong opinions on what techniques work best. Some of his ideas go against the accepted convention. Most shooting instructors teach a revolver grip in which the web of the firing hand is snugged up against the top of the grip tang, but not over it. Miculek puts the web of his shooting hand OVER the top of the grip's recoil hump, leaving just enough clearance between hand and hammer for minimum clearance as the hammer comes back. This gets his hand up closer to gun's bore axis and provides superior leverage to cut down on muzzle flip.

According to most modern instructors, the index finger should contact a revolver's trigger at the crease of the first joint. Miculek goes against conventional wisdom by pulling with the pad of his index finger. This is a man who has obviously put a lot of time and thought into analyzing just what happens when you stroke a revolver's trigger. Have you ever considered the differences in performance between "double actioning" a revolver with most of the pressure on the top of the pad of your index finger, high up on the trigger, or on the bottom of the finger pad, low down on the trigger? Miculek has, and he knows exactly what occurs with both techniques.

The first part of the tape has Miculek in the studio, discussing and demonstrating various techniques dry fire. Frankly, it starts off a little slowly. Miculek seems a bit nervous about talking to the camera, and several times Lenny Magill, off-screen, has to prompt him to keep the words coming. Stick with it for the first five minutes, gang, because once this guy gets warmed up and rolling on his own, he ROCKS! He gives the best instruction I've ever heard on double-action trigger control. Of course, we expected that -- this is, after all, Jerry Miculek. What I didn't expect was also to hear the most concise, incisive, useful instruction I've ever heard on shooting stance as well. In addition, Miculek discusses subtleties of the draw stroke that can shave fractions of a second off your presentation time. I found myself actually leaning forward as I watched this tape, thinking, "Yeah, uh-huh, uh-huh, tell me more!"

The latter parts of the tape have Miculek exercising his skills doing things like firing at a steel plate set up 300 yards away (double action, of course) and hitting it with some regularity; giving that trademark Model 27 of his workouts in some high-speed shooting drills (Miculek says the great thing about the 8-3/8" Model 27 is that the long barrel fives you a superior sight radius for better accuracy, but being a skinny barrel it's not that heavy so it can move fast between targets); firing a 2'1/2" barreled Smith & Wesson M66 .357 Magnum with both .38 target wadcutters AND full-power .357s just to prove he can fire the thing every bit as fast and accurately with the hot stuff; demonstrating revolver reloads (he gets it down to about a second and a half, which is faster than most people can reload an auto pistol); and more!

If you shoot a revolver in competition (or simply own one for self-defense) and want to study techniques you can use to make that wheelgun sing, and if you'd like to see just what your chosen technology is capable of in "the master's hands", you're gonna LOVE this tape.
