Merc4ulfate doesn't really have an idea of just how far 6500 meters looks when you are looking through a sight I am sure. Even through a magnified sight it is a helluva long way away. I spent 3 years as a gunner on a LAV-25 in the Marine Corps and we routinely engaged targets as far as 3000 meters and believe me that was difficult until you got the hang of it. And that was with an M242 25mm cannon. I could just imagine someone trying to hit something as small as a sub at 6500 meters with an iron sight or even a magnified sight back in the day.
