I heard about this yesterday. Very impressive. Do a search for a show called Sniper, Life in the Cross Hairs. I believe it was on the history channel. Some of the most impressive sniper history kills ever.

That's pretty damn amazing. If you don't know, at that distance you have to take into consideration the Earth's gravity and even the curvature of the Earth itself, not to mention any wind that could be there.

I couldnt even hit a car from 1.5miles much less a person. That far away it would be hard to find him.

I know some of you all shoot and some have been in the military but to give you an idea at that range in his scope a person is about a an 1/8 of an inch tall if that and you have to consider where that person is going to be not where he's at........ I was doing some weapons training when I was in the Army and we got to play around with a BMG and at 2500m you could put them in about a 6-8" group from an elevated position....


djom1 I love that show I can't remember the one they showed about two to three weeks ago but dude had like 28 kills in less than a min. at night with an AN/PVS4 scope which suck so bad it's not even funny

No way to call that a "luck" shot, he hit 2 guys!!! Nice!
