are they, can I have a shot at all, no, she is abrupt as if there is no support, everything is going in to make that shot and that gun, oh well, yes, not that, the Olympic Arms k23b is for what that weapon serves, literally accurate. you know that up to about 50 m that distance seems to be at most a couple of hundred yards.

Put it back in the case and go back and get a different one. It is not clean. I repeat. I don't have a clean shot. But. I think she had a clean shot in the military, a clean shot would be um, you're not going to wound, injure, or kill something you don't intend to if your target is one of those two guys that bullet you know is a 5.56. he'll plow through the bad guy and potentially hurt or kill the guy he's trying to help or save. I say shoot, but I can't shoot with blood, if they force me to shoot, I will. the trigger, but I'm not going to guarantee anything.

Luckily, the train is coming toward her instead of moving left or right, which eliminates a lot

math behind shooting when it's approaching or moving away from you. it's just aiming above the target, they're a little bit below the target, as opposed to, you know, aiming in front of it and having that guy essentially run towards the bullet. I'd rate it as one, like it's just not happening at all, so uncool. a tactical pause to take a deep breath, you know, before the shot was

real

ly good, to be more precise, essentially you have to be calm and one of the easiest ways to calm your body or just before the shot is to just take a deep breath and make yourself the blood circulates.

I'm more square behind the rifle instead of having my legs out to the side that way, maybe I crouch like a squat or kneel and put my weight behind the gun that way when it recoils, it's a little more of a straight motion back and not this movement, he will get it just by the alignment of his body and the way he holds the rifle, there you have it, yes, I think it was smart for him to let the vehicle get close to him, everyone thinks that As a sniper we want the longest and furthest shots, but ideally you want the closest ones just because it makes your job much easier and you know that it is almost 100% guaranteed that you are going to hit it, but with that I am protecting someone and I shoot to the vehicle inside, you know, a few feet away from it, the guy is still going to get hit by the moving vehicle.

I don't like that the car did a triple axle like 20 feet from the guy, that's not how it works. The only moving vehicles I shot at I was a machine gunner and I never caused a car to roll over. They usually just crash into a wall or crash into another parked car, just go off the side of the road into the desert. I would give it a six, the only thing that makes me back off is giving it a lower number because the sniper expects the car to get closer, I mean, as far as being a high precision sniper rifle hidden like a flute.

I don't think so, there are many important things in a sniper rifle that make it accurate, but the barrel is really important and most sniper rifle barrels are fluted and float, there is no interference between the barrel and the stock of the weapon. So as not to interfere with the harmonics when it plays, that flute looks like a continuously long object, it's probably accurate, maybe at the distances it shoots at, but I also don't know what caliber it's shooting at, but it's Tom Cruz, so it's probably very exact. It would give the sniper the best position, regardless of what was in that small room or the designs on the walls.

I think that really gives him an advantage. It's almost like shooting from a lagoon. It's like a tactic snipers use abroad. You make a small hole in a wall or something and a sniper walks away from the wall and shoots through that hole to hit an object outside. The guy with the glasses on isn't really in a concealable position, but I guess he's wearing his outfit. to make it stand out less, in the worst position, I would have to say Tom Cruz, any sniper rifle can be suppressed even up to 50 caliber, uh, sniper rifles, you're still going to hear like a noise, it sounds like a clap, a clap loud or if you take a ruler and bang it against a desk unless you use subsonic rounds like he may be using in this case where I could see that no one else really heard anything, shooting lights is actually extremely difficult to do, as if That was one of our things.

Overseas, sometimes when an assault team goes into a building, they want the light to go out to darken it and that's actually quite difficult because it erases everything and it's hard to find exactly, I guess, where the middle is. I'll give it a five, those shots are possible, but I don't think the setup of this scenario is all that realistic. I grew up watching this movie, it's like one of the reasons I wanted to become a sniper. Each sniper has his rifle. and you have your ghillie suit, what it essentially does is it breaks the contour of the human body and it imitates or makes you look like a brush or a foilage, but it's not just the ghillie suit that makes you camouflage what you're really going to want. what you need to do is put a bunch of natural vegetation on the ghillie suit so you look more like the natural environment instead of just this big pile of ghillie suits on your legs, you have the observer and you have the sniper, the observer He is the right one. that you're not pulling the trigger and you're holding or using a scope, um through it it looks like a red dot camera or something, that's just not what it looks like, or you'll have a reticle that mimics similar to what snipers do that use these Mill points or radiating lines that will give you your distance and be able to track with bullet impacts, it's moving, 650 range, being a sniper, it's like 80 to 90% of your job.

This is the observation, it is actually very rare for a sniper to have the opportunity to pull the trigger, most of our things are just transmitting information, observing things, taking pictures and telling commanders what is happening on the ground so that You can be there as long as possible. work needs I think everything he did there was fine, it looks like he's using like it could be an M24 sniper rifle or something similar to that, a variant, but um, like they're good for 800M and 650 yards, so It's not that far away. but it's not as far away as a sniper and a body shot, which is what I normally aim for, was perfect, that's all you're going to do at that distance.

My only problem would probably be having something soft under his uh, maybe his rifle on. Lower a backpack or his backpack or something you know to prop it up to help with the harmonics and make the rifle bounce away from you. I give it a seven. I was going to give it an eight, but a seven because the sniper scope and the reticles and all that just didn't make any sense staying still when you're pinned down by a sniper is almost like a death wish, it's just a matter of time before come up with something to do those bullets hit, run in a zigzag and get out as fast as you can is probably your best bet to prevent an enemy from coming in and doing what just happened here, he sneaks up behind you in the school of snipers, they only teach you two shots, two or three shots.

The sniper's skin is burned. Ideally you would move to a new location once you have a good sniper hide. Set the odds that you like going out after the second shot. The third shot. It is thin, but there are countermeasures to discourage people from entering. that sniper is hiding like for us, we could put a claymore or some booby traps or something behind us and even a guy with the machine gun is usually watching our backs, that actually wasn't that bad and it's night without night. Vision, so I will tell you that we hit targets during the night, but the distances are extremely close.

We had a sniper scope that was mounted with a PVS 14, I believe, which is a night vision accessory that goes on the front of the scope. Bol guns shoot rifles, they jam all the time, e

special

ly in dusty conditions, that gun fires when you pull it back, it's exposed to the elements and it's a slower process compared to a semi-auto where the bolt returns extremely quickly. it's more prone to collecting dust and things of that nature that would cause it to get stuck, man this is getting tough. I don't know, I'd give it a six because realistically, shooting at night like that, I can see you're missing that.

I've debated a lot about doing this when I was pinned down by a sniper in Afghanistan, taking off my helmet, if that was your last resort and all you were trying to do was locate a sniper's position I probably would have raised my helmet like in a Tip of my gun and hung it up instead of throwing it away. I might need that for later, but there's no way the enemy sniper would have hit that, although like in World War II, snipers often used trees to hide and shoot. and there's really no benefit to hiding in a tree once they discover you, all they have to do is let you know.

Focus all your weapons on that tree and cut it down. Hiding under the tree is like in the tree hole where some of them, you know, are hollowed out, I could see it, but I'm afraid of bugs, so that's not for me as far as shooting when it did nine out of 10 Sometimes, if a sniper is sent, it is for OverWatch. his guys and make sure nothing happens to them, but if we're already engaging targets and they're already shooting at us, then anything that moves on that opposite end that's a threat or that has a weapon is going to get shot, so yeah, He had every right to shoot a few bullets at this guy.

I would have done it too. I would give it a nine only because I have been in a situation where I took off my helmet and used it as a decoy. He was an initial technical advisor on this movie and also played the dead guy he got the radio from. He should have won an award for best dead guy of all time, but that arena was real. We were really like in the desert and it was brutal. It's extremely difficult to aim, we call it brown, where it's like a semi-small. I guess a dust storm coming towards you can't see anything, so it definitely won't be able to shoot, e

special

ly at the distances it is at. going with so much dust flying around is scary uh your vision brings back the truth to me um I'm not going to say that it is impossible to eliminate an enemy sniper who is hiding among things like that, the most difficult thing that is going to happen to a good sniper what is there What to do is locate them from what I remember.

I remember he was more than a MERS away, which is extremely, extremely far to conduct a counter-sniper operation. The sound of the rifle that John Cena is firing in the movie is not what it sounds like in reality. A life like that sounds like a semi-automatic rifle, an Attic rifle with a suppressor or something. In real life, that gun is just a big thunderous bang, a big bang. The way he was shooting it in the movie is like it's a semi-automatic instead of him opening the bolt every time and the sound is off please tell me what you got yeah he was dead from the start like shooting in an area open, um, and a sniper is watching you, there really is nothing you can do about it unless you get up, take a chance and run.

Walking away slowly wouldn't work. He'll just watch you crawl and decide when to shoot anyway, so it's a loss, missing this. scene here I don't think I worked that day, so no, I only have some control, but this scene I would rate as oh god, I'm doing this to myself. I'm going to give it a five, I don't know. If I'm comfortable shooting through the windshield portion of a helicopter, bullets act strangely when they hit objects and the first object the bullet will hit is that glass and because it's curved it will deflect the bullet up or down to the left. or, there's really no determining factor as to where that bullet will land, so one shot kills that helicopter scene, not so much from under the car, that's actually a good thing.

I have shot from under several vehicles. and structures and things like that, especially in an urban environment, you will find so much rubble and rubble on the battlefield or where you fight from, so you will have to make do with what you have, the only problem was like his hand. placement on the rifle as if she already had the bipods. I don't see the need to have your hand underneath holding it too, just extra weighthanging for no reason. I probably would have had my support hand closer or holding the butt in my shoulder pocket, unlike that during sniper school we were always told to call in an airstrike when facing another sniper CU, it's really difficult , you know, eliminate it or fight it.

I think she is shooting like a 762 caliber bullet that is well inside her. the capabilities of taking out a target at that distance, the odds of it being dead at any distance would have meant that she would have had to know that distance ahead of time and she kind of uh marked her scope for that, instead she just placed it there and pulled the trigger on the head, not really, but other than that, I think he did pretty well given the circumstances he would have had. She probably did the same, but she'd give it an eight.

She looked very calm behind that and some of the best snipers I know are women, yes, so this movie is based on a real sniper. Miss Pavlenko, she was credited with more than 309 deaths. and as for putting that bullet through the tank like that, I don't know, I only aimed at a tank once and it was by accident and they quickly reminded me not to do that again when they aim at the big gun. my way, she entered her bubble Carlos Hathcock, uh, the Marine Corps sniper called it entering her bubble, that's what she's doing when all these mortar shells and explosions go off around her, it's entering that bubble and being able to close that outside world. the chaos and calm down and ignore everything to take a shot, I can relate to that 110% no, so bullets don't travel in a straight line, they travel in an arc even at 100 yards, so to win that battle you have to. aim higher by making the bullet go up and hit its peak and fall down, all snipers are like really good NFL quarterbacks, you throw it up and they land on the target and the bullets work exactly the same way than before.

Based on a true story I'll give it a nine not a 10 just because bullet trajectory women are the best snipers out there. No sh abandoned the selective objective. All targets are now free. The distances she shoots from are very plausible. like it's at a maximum distance of 150 to 100 yards at least because it's shooting, so at less than 50 yards the range possibly isn't bad either. I'm used to liking m dot scopes and Horus reticles and they look like busy Christmas trees. As without the lights on inside the sniper scopes, it was very simple to shoot with reticle in a crowded environment, it is extremely difficult during the international sniper competition I attended and one of the challenges was to shoot moving targets between a crowd, it is extremely difficult to do. but our distances were much greater than what he appears to be shooting, largely at the angles he was at, you know he got hit and the distances aren't that complicated, just worrying about where the bullet will hit after hitting your target. my only concern is that they are so close to each other that there is also a chance of them getting hit.

I'd give it a solid eight. It's very realistic. Viewers are always messy. No, I don't understand why. just don't put a real scope reticle on there so this is a real spotting scope similar to what the snipers use in the movie and you are using it quite correctly as if you were using it for target detection to identify where it may be a threat. He noticed a small bullet on the edge of that window and then he found things that were out of place that didn't make sense and he finally found where the sniper was, something that looks weird in

movies

: The real use of target detection and how It's important for a sniper to find the smallest details and things that are out of place to figure it out, you know, find who they're looking for, what you want to do is get pushed back away from the hole and don't put the barrel sticking out. outside. of the hole gives away your position and alleviates that whole purpose of why you made that hole in the first place.

I'll give it a seven. I love the use of target detection, but it was wrong to run the cannon all over my favorite. The sniper scene of all time would have to be from the movie Lone Survivor, they had their sniper rifle and they were attacking targets in the woods and that was the most realistic job scene I have ever seen, thanks for watching and, if you wish. this video be sure to point to one of the previous videos and maybe give it a chance or two
