No, and this sniper is no typical sniper. In spite of what the ignorant anti-gun politicians are ranting, I am at least that good a shot--and I don't consider myself an accomplished rifleman.

Likewise.

I might be nit-pickin but am I the only one to gnash teeth when these beltway bozos, who have never fired a weapon, call the round a two-two-three! In my experience they are two-twenty threes.

They seem to think that .223's are "sniper heaven" and the only weapons available in that calibre are military special-forces issue. Heck, I had a Remington Plain Jane bolt action hunting piece. Neat gun!

They also make it seem super friggin human for anyone to shoot sccurately at more than 10 feet. Any midwest/western farm kid can do 100 yards with a .22 (twentytwo).
