@dog209 simo did virtually all his killing at 100-150m. He was in dense forest and rough topography, there weren't extreme distance sight lines and he did not use an optic.

@alexbowman7582 ALL extreme distance snipers do. Americans are not the only ones affected by things like the wind and gravity.

@dog209 that is idiotic. Many people have good distance vision and hero worshipping simo as if he is the only person to have ever been born who could do it is just childish. There are hundreds of thousands if not millions of very good marksman. There are tens if not hundreds of millions of people with better than average vision. It is very difficult, few can do it and few have the skill and even fewer would ever try. But one man is the only person ever ? Stop reading comic books and playing video games ...your perspective is warped.
