[QUOTE="LRNut, post: 1944249, member: 3230"] I was looking for someone who had hands on experience with these programs, so thank you very much for posting. I referenced DARPA earlier but not these two programs specifically. I am aware of both, and find it very intriguing that DARPA gave up on OneShot; I can only conclude that even if they could measure the wind precisely, at some point TOF becomes too much of an obstacle. There is a reason DARPA stopped this project, as well as the guided 50 cal project. Do you know why? I know it is fashionable to say there is no limit to what a long range hunter can do, but at some point TOF makes a 90% hit probability impossible. Hell, even if there is no wind the animal can move within 2 or 3 seconds. [/QUOTE]
