I stand corrected..... maybe I read the military had looked at the 7 mag. a while back. Anyway, you gotta like the look on those soldiers' faces.... "We've got a job to do!"
I like the idea of using more snipers in cities..though heavy, the McMillan 88 (50 cal?) can get their attention. I'm hoping GW has dropped the reigns now to let our guys go after the insurgents....especially ones from other countries.

We also have the 50 Cal. Barrett for sniping, which is capable of shots of over 2 miles.
During Desert Storm, the Republican Guard Officers used to stand on a high sand pile or truck hood to address his ranks but they had to quickly change that protocol because they just fell over dead with out a head or a hole in their chest big enough to pass a Pizza. And they never heard the shot.
