What cartridge was he shooting? I like how he keeps both eyes open. What a shot! I guess you are never too old!

O.K. guys, it has been a little over 100 years ago I took trigonometry but lets see if I have this right. First I said if 1" at 100yards is 1 moa then 5" at 1000 years is .5 moa. That can't be right because at 100 years that fellow would have put them all in the same hole. So trying again I 5/360000X3437.7=.047 MOA. If I've got this right that 84 year old sniper, the guy with the new black hat shoots, .047 MOA. That is 4 one hundredths of an inch. Is that right?

Also, at 1000 years is the bullet still super sonic? If not does it still get there before the sound catches up?

My hat is off to Mr. Gundy (sp??). He can shoot better at 85 then I can when I am dreaming. Impressive. Certainly a man deserving of recognition.
