The 100 yard silhouettes on the smallbore range at Red Castle are no trouble for handguns. The 150 and 200 yard silhouettes are trickier because of the hold over. Witnesses can confirm that even with my Beretta 21A, 100 yards is not that difficult to do.
You're actually doing better than you thought because the center-fire pigs are set at 100 meters (~109 yards).

With my 6" .38 Special, I usually knock down 3 or 4 pigs out of 6 shots. The shape of the turkeys at 150 meters gives me more trouble than it's worth to shoot at them. Or maybe it's my not so perfect eyes with the iron sights...
