So, was he like 12 stories up? Because that isn't a big deal. If he was on the third or fourth floor maybe . But 2 miles on a rifle on top of a building? Get your rations and go to bed.
I know that sounds bad. But he was shooting downrange at a settled target. From the high ground without any interference. I've potted squirrels that were harder to hit. I do admire this individual and hope he can take that talent home and reduce the Elk problem. If he can get them to stand still while he is 2 miles away and standing on top of a multistory building.
Sure, I have no trouble believing you're a good shot. But you've made shots more difficult than this one, which destroyed a world record and made the news halfway across the world? ...naaaaah.
Next time you bag a rabbit in full run in a briar patch next to a creek, I might care about what you have to say. Oh, and I was almost , not quite, but almost a mile away with a 22.
These are ranges where the core of the very laws of physics are coming into play... where Newton himself will slap that rifle out of your hand and say no, that is impossible.
Yes. Because hunting a moving rabbit is the exact same thing as being in a kill zone, where you run the risk of being sniped while attempting a shot like that. Yes. Good for you for bagging squirrels. I'm sure that those pesky squirrels were attempting to kill you, and planning out another terrorist attack. Sit down and shut up with your words. Comments like that sicken the fuck out of me.
Okay, I don't know a lot about sniping, but how is shattering the *world record* by that fucking much not impressive? I'm genuinely curious. If it's as unimpressive as you say, this_isntme, then why was this record just made now, and by such a wide margin?
...naaaaah
THREE FUCKING KILOMETERS.
