    If they were shooting at you with a weapon designed for those ranges, and expertise in said weapon, you’ll be dead before you know what’s going on.

    If this guy is trained in hunting animals with such weaponry well… The ideal they go for is a single round to the head heart before the target even suspects something’s up. If they are consistently good at that with deer, then humans aren’t exactly harder.

      The ideal shot on a deer is through the heart. Hunting by shooting at the smallest, most mobile part of the deer is less common.

      Hunters generally don’t shoot at the part they want to take as a trophy.
