The AMU presents a WWII Sniper with a reproduction 1903A4, and then lets him take a crack at the 1000 yard target. Yeah they set the rifle up, but the Veteran holds up his end of the bargain and gets some pretty impressive head shots.
I would love to have a beer with him. Unbelievable!
It's amazing, his first shot at 1000 yards is a headshot. That'll cause a headache.

In other sniper related news, back in 2009 Craig Harrison claimed the record for longest confirmed kill at 2706 yards. Unbelievable. 8,118 feet away. I can't even wrap my brain around that.
