I could teach you how to hit a target at 200 yards from a prone position in an afternoon. In a couple of sessions it would feel like the most normal thing in the world.

Back in my younger days, I did a bit of competitive rifle shooting. And that involved sighting in my rifle before the event.

But that was a long time ago. Do they now have some sort of fancy laser gizmo that makes sighting in a rifle unnecessary? If not, wouldn’t Robinson had to have sighted in his rifle for 200 yards previously?

After all, that was a pretty remarkable kill shot (and obviously not in a good way).

Disclaimer: I’m not saying Robinson wasn’t the shooter. I’m just surprised at how good (or lucky) the shot was.
