Could you hit a target 1,000 yards away? These sharpshooters can

 

Sherri Gallagher is 26 years old and has dark hair, pretty brown eyes and a shy smile. She likes Top 40 music, is unfailingly polite and occasionally wears her hair in pigtails. She is also so proficient with a rifle that if you were standing 1,000 yards away from her -- which is to say, 10 football fields or almost two thirds of a mile -- she could put a bullet within 10 inches of your heart 100 out of 100 times. linky

 

"And she's a purty little gal, too."

Could I? Probably not. My longest shot on a deer was just under 400 yards. Usually they're under 150.

 

Cool story though. Long distance shooters are amazing.

I can hit a one inch square target from 60 feet away with my air rifle. How do you like them apples?

Kinda the same thing, right???

It's not impossible. I used to bullseye womp rats in my T-16 back home, they're not much bigger than two meters.

With the right weapon and my eyesight when I was 25, yes. Its hell to get old.

Back in the olden days I had a Lft-hand Remington 280 and could break a pop bottle at 400 yards with ideal conditions. 2x a year in Lincoln

I'm really impressed with those golfers though. Most of my shots look like theirs too. skippin' along the ground
