People here who shoot have said that it wasn’t such a difficult shot.

“People here who shoot have said that it wasn’t such a difficult shot.”

200 yards with a precise shot to the carotid artery with one shot is a pretty good shot. It was a certainly fatal shot designed to kill even if Kirk had body armor.

It was an experienced shooter. It didn’t have to be an army trained sniper. But this was not a casual shooter who bought a gun and practiced a few times out at the range.

No. Most deerhunters would love that range.

200 yards is not a shot a random person with a little bit of practice can just go out and do on the spur of the moment. It takes a good deal more experience than that.

Bullshit! Try to make that shot at 200 yards.
