On the roof about to commit murder and a day at the range are really different experiences.

I think that the real question is how much like a video game, it is.

Yeah, the positions at the range often have a roof to keep the sun off the shooters.

I wonder if his gaming had him looking through scopes at human targets.

Indeed. Just as I cited in my own comment somewhere in this thread…

With a comment like that, you sound as though you’ve been on a roof about to commit murder before, and somehow, I don’t think that’s true about you.
Still…if you’ve practiced at something for a while, then I think some of those practices kick in.
Some people get excited from an adrenaline rush, and some people are terrified. Maybe this assassin got off on it. He seemed pretty proud of himself.

As an army doctor, you presumably had to qualify with a pistol at routine intervals. A rifle is a completely different animal. A 50 foot shot with a 9mm from a standing position is hard. A 500 foot shot with a scoped rifle on a rest is easy.
