Armymom1228, I was in Virginia Beach in the late 90's and asked Carlos how far was that shot that went thru the enemy's scope. He said, according to the topographical map, ~ 500 meters.

Saw an Army sniper hitting an iron maiden target (18" x 30" IIRC) at night at 1600 meters ( 1 mile).

Last 3 shots were in the face of the target.

Saw same army shooter shoot a football sized and shaped rock at 400 yards at near dusk off hand while he was still wobbling and settling-in on foot with a 243 bolt gun that wasn't his gun.

Not bad shooting.

Good times.
Aw now I am jealous. I admit I was squinting in Bob's video watching the bucks..
