No. And, I'm disappointed so many blindly believed.
The initial information was 200-300 yards. A good shooter with range ammo (medium quality) and a decent rifle will shoot about 2 MOA or "minutes of angle" accuracy. A better shooter with better ammo and rifle will shoot about 1.5 MOA.
The math conveniently works out such that 1 MOA is 1 inch at 100 yards. At 1 MOA and 100 yards range, the distance from the furthest spaced rounds in a small number of rounds will be 1 inch.
At 300 yards 1.5 MOA is 4.5 inches. At 200 yards it's 3 inches. At 300 it'd take three shots to be sure. At 200 it's a likely one shot kill.
The news of 200-300 yards was intentional uncertainty. We sheep aren't to know the actual risk to Trump's life.
Wtf is a yard?
3 feet. Roughly a meter.
Thanks!
A yard slightly less than a meter. So 500 yards is 457 meters.
it would've been so cool if they just set 1 meter to 1 yard
