Couple a Bad Dudes

Post by Viking45 »

Reading a few articles about all the wars going on led me to a few articles about snipers and found this to be interesting.

Billy Dixon makes the list of the longest kill shots...but his shot was made in 1874 with a Sharps 50-90.

This is the first time I have heard of this guy,he is from Finland and made some serious shots using a Mosin-Nagant with iron sights.
