US Snipers Taking Out Taliban with .50 Cal Rifle - Video - Body Parts Flying

Live camera shots of US snipers taking out Taliban with .50 caliber sniper rifles in Afghanistan. These are some examples of the fight in Afghanistan. These video shots are not made through the shooter’s telescopic sight… they are made looking through the spotter’s scope.The spotter lies right next to the sniper and helps the sniper to find and home in on the target. The sniper is using a 50 caliber rifle. A 50 cal. round is about 7-8 inches long and the casing is about an inch in diameter. The bullet itself is one-half inch in diameter and roughly one and one-half inches long. Pay close attention to the beginning of the video. A Taliban is laying on top of the peak in front of you… when you hear the shot fired… watch what happens. Our sniper is about a half mile away… or more. It is not known if the sniper team is Marine or Army.

Yes, it is a hoax. I have seen the original Groundhog footage before the audio was edited.

It is the same clips that someone put together.

Trust me, it is not the real deal.

Although there are some Real Deal shots that I am sure are recorded.

So there are groundhogs and squirrels wearing clothes and living in the mountainous regions like that?

And one or two of the targets seemed to be moving like men and wearing clothes?

So now you are in charge of finding video that shows the damage a real sniper’s bullet does to a deserving Islamofacist.
