Question about Season 4 episode 'Double Ricochet' (SPOILERS!)

When exactly did Crocket suspect his former partner Finch was working for the Monetti twins? Seems to me he had an inkling early on, in the night club (when he ordered Finch the club soda) but if that's the case, what exactly tipped him off?

And would Tubbs really have been able to shoot the mob enforcer from that distance (at least 300 feet), at night, with just an ordinary service pistol? As Crockett observes, "Helluva shot, Rico."

Minor quibbles aside, this was easily one of the 3 best episodes of the fourth season and a worthy addition to the series.

Regarding Rico's shot yes it can be done but it's a "rare" shot not to mention very hard with a snub nose that Rico carries
And cops have to practice low light shooting in order for night time.
