Watched it on the History Channel for the first time. Had to say I was quite impressed. And I don't plan to piss off anyone in the Canadian sniper corp. Those guys are cold as steel when they need to be.
The forensic re-enactments are quite graphic. In one test, an exploding .50 Browning round issued to US snipers was fired into a concrete brick wall with a block of ballistic jell behind it. The explosion and tungsten penetrator dragged a pound of concrete fragments through the entire length of the block of jell!
Two hours of record breaking distance kills. Watch it.
