Way back in history in Jr. High...they said one of the reasons the new America won the war was because they had so many men who grew up shooting squirrels on the run. Don't know if that was the squirrels on the run or the men...anyhow.....

After that, it wasn't anything to hit a great big target of a man wearing a red coat!

I don't know...it gives me the willies to think about being in a combat zone....but as a police sharpshooter one would know their job is to save a life by taking one....this would probably negate nervousness.

I have a friend who is on the SWAT team at the Pen.

He was telling me that he is working on sniper technique. Shoots a Remington Model 700, .308 cal.

He is supposed to be able to do a 1/2" pattern from 100 yards and 3/4" pattern from 200 yards.
