[QUOTE="Alfred Crouch, post: 390567, member: 13464"] BountyHunter, I guess I am "doubting Thomas" since my BS flag is still in the air waving. You are right in that those of us who don't shoot at very long ranges don't understand the possibility of reasonably [B]expecting, [/B]not just gambling to see if that is the lucky shot that will connect, to make hits at a mile and behond. I just think of how little movement it takes, human movement in holding the rifle, or how little change in air currents between shooter and the target it would take at such long range to change the impact of the bullet many feet .... and for him to make 3 consecutive shots, one at a tiny machine gun no less, at that range is beyond comprehension ..... one could be luck maybe ...... but 3 lucky shots in a row. Still can't buy it. [B]IF it happened[/B] odds of repeatability of the event would be [B]unbeliveably[/B] small. [/QUOTE]
