50 cal sniper vs Taliban
One shot......one kill

These are some examples of the fight in Afghanistan. These video shots
are not made through the shooter's telescopic sight..., they are made
looking through the spotter's scope. The spotter lies right next to the
sniper and helps the sniper to find and home in on the target.
The sniper is using a 50 caliber rifle. A 50 cal. round is about 7-8
inches long and the casing is about an inch in diameter. The bullet
itself is one-half inch in diameter and roughly one and a half inches long.
Pay close attention to the beginning of the video. A Taliban is laying
on top of the peak in front of you..., when you hear the shot fired....,
watch what happens next.
Our sniper is about a half mile away... or more.
