Tpoppa Posted June 22, 2017 Report Share Posted June 22, 2017 I'm actually surprised they took the shot from that far. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tonik Posted June 22, 2017 Author Report Share Posted June 22, 2017 Might have been the only option, a fast reaction. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tpoppa Posted June 22, 2017 Report Share Posted June 22, 2017 Just now, Tonik said: Might have been the only option, a fast reaction. Yeah, must have been a special circumstance. Typically they wouldn't want to alert the target if the chances of a kill are low. That takes a lot of skill and a little luck. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Steve Butters Posted June 23, 2017 Report Share Posted June 23, 2017 Probably the case... From that far away, who cares if you alert someone... Not like they're gonna have the equipment or experience to return fire effectively, especially at over 2 miles Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
