"That's a long distance to shoot from and still retain any accuracy"

Well, I'm nothing but a 43 yr old former dear hunting farm boy from Missouri and with the right rifle, scope & a tripod I can pull of a 340 yard shot with ease.

With 15 minutes of training, I can have most of you doing the same thing. It's the equipment and about 4 key things. It's not rocket science and contrary to some posts, this level of accuracy does NOT require years of military training.

On the other hand, the fact that this guy is shooting from a vehicle and maintaining his accuracy consistently DOES indicate SOME level of discipline.

Just wanted to curb the "holy cow, this guy is good" tone that seems to be developing. There's no need to think this guy is anything special, because this isn't all THAT tough to do.

Now let's find him and give him and make where that rifle up his @#$

I wrote my earlier comments about 340 yards being so far away and have accuracy. My husband corrected me when he got up this morning. Seems difficult to me, but to the avg. man with experience shooting rifles, I guess it's not.
