The human neck is small from 600 ft away!!

[Jack Valentino]

90. Been reading articles all day by "expert marksman" who believed that

the shooter was going for a 'head shot', but didn't take 'wind drift' into account,
and thus hit the target in the neck... Not likely that they were aiming for the neck.

Their conclusion was that the shooter was by no means a military trained sniper,
but more likely a self-trained shooter who had practiced at a range....
(which probably includes very many of the gun enthusiasts in America---
I've done it myself, although many years ago-- and I'm not really a "gun enthusiast" )

None-the-less that an 'average shooter' with practice could have made that shot at that range,
with such a weapon equipped with a scope,
and clearly it was so effective that they didn't even need to try for a second shot
(even though they probably missed their aiming point by several inches)


Whoever the shooter was, chose a more effective weapon for the task, they said---
a bolt-action .30-06 with more power and accuracy than an AR-15 knockoff,
which is more effective for spraying a lot of bullets fast with less power and accuracy....

(thus the AR-15 types are more effective for a "mass shooting"
than for targeting one person in particular)
