Competitors face an extreme shooting gallery. With only eight remaining, it’s back to marksmanship basics. The marksmen face off with a firearm they’re all familiar with, a .22, and the level playing field allows them to see who really excels.

It’s a Trick Shot Showdown! Contestants split a bullet on an axe, shoot with both hands and upside down as they attempt iconic shots from exhibition shooting history. Some marksmen step up to the extreme challenge while others fall short.

This was a fun one to watch. The exhibition style shooting really pushed competitors to the limit, because extreme pinpoint accuracy was all that mattered. Read Colby’s take at: http://www.shootingillustrated.com/7550/top-shot-season-2-episode-7-colbys-take/

Marksmen compete with legendary primitive weapons: the tomahawk and blowgun. One of the most intense challenges of the season allows us to see who has natural skills and adaptability – and who doesn’t.
