Former Army sniper hits target 1000 yards while standing
The former Army sniper hits the target 1000 yards away with a Barrett M107. The kicker is he was shooting from a standing position.

The fact it is "tards" and not yards is what makes it really impressive.RPBrown wrote:The former Army sniper hits the target 1000 tards away with a Barrett M107. The kicker is he was shooting from a standing position.

I wouldn't have attempted that offhand at 500 yards. That was amazing.

I noticed my handgun accuracy was improving. Then I noticed I was starting to lean forward against the anchored metal tables at the shooting range.
Amazing.
