Hey all,
Was readin this month's Guns and Ammo mag, and an article in it about the evolution of the AR 15. The writer was talkin up the 77 grain Black Hills match load and its lethality. He said that in Afghanistan kills were scored with it at 700 yards, and that two operators killed 75 taliban with 77 shots.
I believe the part about scoring kills at 700 yards, but I'm not too sure of the 75 kills with 77 shots by two people. Its kinda weird that two guys would engage so many targets with ARs. And that they would only miss twice. For all I know it happened but I am suprised I hadn't heard of it. Could be some of the kills came from air strikes or something?
Anybody know anything about this one?
