And what so many people fail to mention (or realiase, becuase
thier source doesn't mention it) is that it took two or three shots to
hit the kid, who had sufficent time to remove a rifle and magazine
from a cargo bundle on bike, get the magazine in, and IIRC get off
a couple shots.
I also think that it may have been 1200m, not 2000m. (I don't
have his bio handy right now.) Still, a mile is damn impressive
shooting. Hitting a smallish human at that range, after three
rounds over a couple seconds, is nothing to sneeze at.
Sick of hearing people talk about thier thousand yard shots,
without bothering to tell us how many times they missed and thier
time between shots--
