This is detailed video footage of a US sniper team at work at a 1 mile range.
This dude punches a round through a brick wall where a 3 man assault team is hiding with heavy weapons and absolutely obliterates them into pink mist!
Other targets hit as well at 1 mile range.

.50BMG, turning cover into concealment since 1922
Pretty cool.
lol The .50 BMG rifles almost make it ‘unfair’.
I’ve always wanted to buy one, but I have no idea what I would do with it, because living in the mountains, I wouldn’t really have a good place to shoot it. I’ll just stick with my .308 for the longer ranged stuff around here.

It’s a movie.
What a waste of time.

This is a dramatization, not actual footage.
The location looks like a training course. There’s little or no real-life random stuff - signs, cars, garbage, laundry, wires, puddles, potholes, etc.

Guys,
Drama or not, if the facts are even half true, why isn’t Rikard a hero of 2nd grade boys in Oklahoma? Why doesn’t Obama have a gala evening or even “share a beer” with him?
Damned liberals, that’s why. In the WH and in the MSM.

True story but a recreation for TV.
Semper Fi!

The thought of aiming over 6 feet off target is what boggles my mind. JUST DAMN!
HOLY SMOKES!!!! This is a must see.
Oh Hell !
He was just kidding.
Do you think he was really serious when he mentioned that our journalists are “Their” fifth column?
Does anyone thing that “Our” press corps does not have our best interest at heart?
Phooey I say !
Phooey - Phooey - Phooey !
We were plinking with one at the barn the other day and shootig pillow sized rocks at about 600 yards. Way cool, all you could see on the spotting scope was a cloud of rock shards. Just plain exploded the rock of 50 to 75 lbs.

Steel targets at 1km are fun. You can talk about the shot you just made before the round hits, and even more before the sound reaches you.
