Even I could hit something with this baby...
From the article, On Dec. 20, he killed one sniper with a single shot from a .50-caliber XM-107 rifle from 750 yards away.
Yeah, something. But at 750 yards?

" But at 750 yards?"
Shucks; I'd be doing well to hit a boxcar at that range, if it was standing still on a siding!
But I shooore would like to TRY!
We have been told that the old "Ma-Deuce" can be set up with a scope and from it's tripod mount, is quite capable of picking off individual enemies at a thousand yards or better.
Apparently they are good for a lot more than just chewing stuff up on full-auto mode!
