A long way? Wein I was in the Marine Coprs, we had to qualify up to the 500 yd line... There were intersevice matches held and would shoot up to the 1000 yd line... with steel sights, no scope!!! Not trying to bust your chops, but to only be able to make a "tricky" shot at 1000 with .50 cal.........The snipers would qualifiy at the 1000 with steel sights. That weapon, the .50 cal, can strike effectivly up to and beyond 1 mile... :bsflag:

in school we had to qualify at 1,000m but I was talking "real world". On the range there is no stress, conditions are usually pretty good and no one is trying to kill you. The only time some one is going to fire a shot up to a mile is either in a mountanous or flat area. In a city the conditions dictate the shot, not the range of the weapon. And even with the .50 1,000y is far. fuckin wind, baro pressure etc comes into play.

And I don't take offense, I just didn't explain my self. That and I didn't see the vid. That shit is blocked at work.

Why the BS flag?
