@mike69 saidIt sounds like you don't know much about optics. You really think they are aiming their scopes at Trump's head and counting pimples?
At only 150 yards and straight on shot they could count the pimples on his face with their optics but can’t see the guy crawl up with a rifle in front of them at this level?
Those scopes also have zero peripheral vision and they make images darker because they spread out the same amount of light over a larger area when they magnify the image.
I would really like to find out where you are getting your info from because I can't find the details you are talking about.
@divegeester saidNice clip. The guy was probably just scanning the area and wasn't sure what he was seeing.
Here’s a clip showing the sniper’s reaction. It’s odd, looks like they had him in sights but didn’t shoot until after he (the gunman) did.

@AThousandYoung saidPutting all the news stories together from today each had bits on tv and the live interviews of the people there.

@AThousandYoung saidI’m talking about the snipers in doing their job and they also had binoculars. I’ve shot a few 308s with really nice optics it makes a difference. I’ve told you before to stay off call of duty sunshine.

@AThousandYoung saidMoro go to bed.
The shooter was in full camo that matched the building he was on. Camo works.

@AThousandYoung saidHow easy did you see him dead, now picture him alive???

@mike69 saidThat's how camo works. If you know what you're looking at and are focused exactly on the target it's far different than scanning a wide area through a scope.

Looks like it was a suppressed AR-15 or something similar used by a Republican in camo.

@AThousandYoung saidNot when he’s the only thing on a small water tower at only 148 yards away, 50 foot directly behind the top of the outer perimeter with people yelling waving and pointing at him and police a little down from them. This is their job to think plan ahead look for these high points to shoot from beforehand. It’s not a fuking football stadium but a farm with only a few.
It's easy to find Waldo if someone draws a circle around him.

@mike69 saidGive Waldo camoflauge and add in the fact that there are buildings, birds, and a huge crowd of people...

^^Sniper analysis: "the distance...from what I've read...is about 125 yards, maybe 150 yards...you're talking a football field"

@AThousandYoung saidI’m not saying he shot a 308 just me. His sounded much smaller?
