Soft targets don't move a lot from the force of the bullet hitting them. Unless you were getting hit by a Howitzer shell that is. The point being is that a standing target suffering trauma would drop as the body convulses from shock. Also factoring in muzzle climb, you've got crossing tradjectories.

Even sitting in a chair, you'd get slumping or jerking sideways making putting four into center mass at a distance a tricky proposition.

Dunno... Could have just been a string of well placed or even just plain old lucky shots. Not saying it can't be done, just a reduced likelyhood.

FWIW... I'm a decent shot. At 100yrds with my AR and a scope I can print clover leafs all day long. Not sure I could put 4 into the chest of someone in another building while they were moving. 2, maybe even 3. Semi-auto only though. Full auto, even with a decent compensator is going to jump around too much for accuracy at distance on anything other than an area target.

It's been a couple of years since I've been to the range. I used to could hit coke cans at 250 yards, depending on wind, with open sights using a german mauser. I couldn't do that now, however; I'm way out of practive. Also, I'm in the IT field and my job includes being parked in front of a PC monitor a lot. As a result, I've become nearsighted just enough that I have trouble focusing the front and rear sights anymore. Given practice, I could get that back, but as I said; I'm pretty badly out of practice.
