Unless the shooter is very, very good, he'll get his due...probably from the air... probably overkill, but he'll get his due. If they know the shooter's gender, age, and weapon details, then I'm willing to wager that they know a whole lot more about him, and his time is therefore SHORT. This type of information doesn't just fly out of somebody's butt without other preceding information on the guy.

We've got a No-4 Mk-1 Enfield (U.S. Lend Lease) and it's a heck of a rifle by it's own right. The old WW-I and WW-II ammo left some to be desired, but mainly because of bullet design. The round nosed, jacketed bullets were good for their time, but compared to high B.C. projectiles available today, they're sub-standard performers. We've got a hand-load behind a 150gr Speer spitzer that will give the .308 Winchester a run for its money at several hundred yards!

Yeah... prayers up for our troops, as well as the Brits and Aussies fighting with them. ...hope they get the shooter soon!

I know two Marine snipers that were tasked to take out a Towelaban shooter in Afcrapistan. Took them a week to get the guy with a chip shot of 150 yards. The guy made the mistake of shooting from the same place twice in two days.
