RE: sniper rifle for hunting?
Oldgrunt,
I'm on the outside looking in now, but it seems that the Army snipers are a lot better trained and prepared than the guys that I served with after Vietnam.
Maybe someone can help me. Talking about Vietnam era snipers, there was an Army sniper that had 127 confirmed kills, and I can't remember his name. He worked for Mitch Werbell of OSS and SIONICS fame after Vietnam. I remember they interviewed this guy in the late 70's on a ABC or CBS newsmagazine type show. I remember the image he projected reminded me a lot of the snake eaters that I went through various schools with when I was a grunt. Somebody remember who I'm talking about?
