Who is Corey Mills?

130 yards with simple iron sights is NOT a shot any idiot could make.

In the military we rarely shot past 50 yards in yearly qualifications.

SO MANY of his comments are wrong.

I think you can qualify in Army Basic training without hitting any targets at all beyond 100 meters.

Depends on your branch of service. Marine Corps rifle qualification used to start at 200 yards, 12” bullseye, five rounds from each of three positions: standing, kneeling, and sitting. Last phase was 10 yards prone, 500 yards, bullseye 20” x 40”. That was all with iron sights.

My friend who was sergeant in an airborne division was trained on iron sights to 300 meters.
