Served as a sniper (or maybe marksman would be more accurate term) in Finnish army, one maybe obvious thing to add for the "high value target" list includes anyone using radios or any kind of special equipment (MGs, anti-tank etc.). And the 1st priority was always the most dangerous enemy, then the high value ones. Instructors sometimes told stories of how in past wars some snipers added to their terror by shooting either the 1st person of the Russians walking through, or maybe always the 2nd one. This made it so that sometimes enemy didn't want to take the lead, or maybe follow anyone who did. Scary stuff to even think about.

Most snipers and precision long range shooters don't bother to account for the Coriolis effect. Enter the data for a 6.5CM shot under 1km into a ballistics calculator like Applied Ballistics, and compute the hold with and without Coriolis. The difference will be negligible. Also, at 6:55, the game in your ad shows a full round, not just a bullet, of what appears to be 9mm, flying through the air. It even has an unfired primer and a headstamp on the case. Nobody so clueless about firearms is going to make a decent firearm related game. The drop difference between 760y and 870y completely depends on the caliber. With something like a .300WM or .338 Lapua it will be minimal. That's one reason sniper units are moving towards more powerful rounds like those. Laser range finders measure the angle of the return laser and use trigonometry to calculate the distance.

[@brosthestickmandude]

[@themoss7115]

Bullet drop is not the first/only reason why are snipers moving towards heavier bullets. Snipers (or any long range shooters) prefer better ballistic coefficient over the flatter trajectory (you can measure the distance precisely, but cross wind will be always a good guess at best). Thing is, snipers are greedy and they want both with some some extra lethality on top. You can have all of those only with heavy, powerful and hard recoiling monsters.

[@j4s0n39]

@@themoss7115 I clearly said it's one reason, not the only reason or the primary reason. Also it's not exactly heavier that we're going for to improve BC, it's the length to diameter ratio.

[@The_Judge300]

@@themoss7115 A 338 Lapua Magnum or a 338 Norma Magnum are not that hard recoiling at all in modern sniper rifles. Specially because silencers are used as well. A 50 BMG is usually not used against humans and they are terrible to carry around for most sniper roles. A 338 is mainly used because of high BC for cross wind and to lose as little KE as possible. And to combat body armor. If the sniper that shot at Stephen Tschiderer had used a 338, Stephen Tschiderer would not have survived the shot. The sniper was clearly not a well trained, smart and experienced sniper as he would never tried a torso shot with the gun he used.

[@davidneumann5175]

There's more involved in some of this. It depends on caliber, muzzle velocity, bullet weight etc. from a hunting view, a 30:06 bullet has 2 points that are on X. The bullet rises to a certain point then starts to drop, so if your sighting in for 200 yards then the bullet will be on X again at say 375 yards. Those aren't good numbers but it's an example, on going up, on coming back down

Sniping i.e. the verb originated in the 1770s among soldiers in British India where a hunter skilled enough to kill the elusive snipe was dubbed a "sniper". The term sniper was first attested in 1824 in the sense of the word "sharpshooter". Is essentially hunting, and uses all the aspects of hunting, and the objective of the hunt is another person.

[@coledrevenj]

No, no, no. "Sniper" is a term that originated in the 1830's when people competing in a timed Ebay auction would get shot down by a last second winning bid.

The Lovat Scouts, a Scottish Highland regiment formed by Simon Fraser, 14th Lord Lovat during the Second Boer War, is the first known military unit to use ghillie suits and in 1916 went on to become the British Army's first sniper unit. The Lovat Scouts were initially recruited from Scottish Highland estate workers, especially professional stalkers and gamekeepers. 😉

The police found the suspected sniper's nest and whoever did it seems to be familiar with the tactics mentioned in the video such as: Concealing himself using the vegetation around his spot, and is familiar with stalking due to the fact he was never caught and fled the scene after taking the shot.

Before watching I’m gonna try and predict the answer: I’m guessing it’s a combination of factors; 1. Most if not all soldiers in the modern era wear helmets that have been getting better and better as protection technology advances. 2. The head is a smaller target than the rest of the body 3. You don’t need to kill your enemies instantly on the battlefield, hell, you don’t even need to kill them necessarily. In war, the aim is to stop your enemy’s forces from doing what they set out to do, and violence is how you’ve chosen to do it. You just need to knock them down and make sure they stay down, and if they never get back up again, that’s just an added bonus. A suitably powerful bullet will take someone out of action if it hits just about any significant part of their body.

[@Varaldar]

there is no helmet that will stop a rifle round out of a sniper. and there likely wont be one. they are designed to stop shrapnel and blunt force mostly. a helmet that could effectively stop a sniper round would be heavy as fuck and even if it does stop the bullet dead it might still take you out of the fight as you now have a concussion or a cracked skull

[@allstarwoo4]

Snipers can go for "head shots" but there are a factors to consider. The main one is the caliber they are using and the amount of armor they are using. Generally speaking most body armor used in war or battle can handle at least 1 small rifle round requiring a follow up shot which is not really advisable for a sniper. A "headshot" is not even a head shot really it's more of neck shot. The target area being the top lip to the neck. The idea being a clean shot in that area will more than likely kill you target. Because it's technically possible to survive a body shot unlikely yes but again when you can't take a follow up shot it matters.

[@The_Judge300]

This is totally correct and it is amazing how so many still believe that snipers try to injure as many as possible to bind up resources. As a sniper you want to kill the enemy as fast as possible. And there are multiple reasons for that. If by chance you are using a lighter cartridge and/or the enemy uses body armor, you for sure try to take neck shots as this part has no body armor and it doesn't move as much as the head does. If you on the other hand use a 338 Lapua Magnum or a 338 Norma Magnum, that is my preferred cartridge, then you always take center torso shots when you can as body armor is not much of a help against that. I have never seen anyone survive a 338 to the torso.
