Very nice. :yeah: We're clocking up the sniper records out there, we've got the longest range too at the moment, nearly three miles.

Bloody good work by those two. Got a long way to go to meet Finnish standards, but they're doing a fine job. :salute:

A 7.62 will do a crapload of damage.
Enough to stop an Elephant.
We used to use the calibre in the Army, when we had the SLR rifle. Before we switched to the crappy and puny 5.56 Steyr.
But double kill, that's big.
Only 196 mtres at a moving target, interesting notion that, i had my Crossed Rifles in the army, meant i was a sharp shooter. Wonder how fast the bike was travelling?
196 is not far.

"Quigleys" are very rare.

What's that saying? "A Welshman can do anything but stand 6 feet tall." Guess this adds one more notch to the summary of "anything."

But it was a rifleman not a guardsman so it wasn't the welsh guards.

I'm not overly familiar with the makeup over there... but that's what the article said.

Maybe a similar structure to the US' combined arms combat team?

4 rifles is a battalion of the rifles, the welsh guards is the welsh guards.

Yes its a mix and match.
It becomes the welsh guards group as that is the senior regiment even though it is younger regiment.

Achievement!!!! 25 point.

Damn campers.

They'll get a pat on the back for reducing the amount of ammunition used! Every round saved helps the budget!

:har:
That's an old Quake bitch if I ever saw one!
