How NOT to snipe moving targets...

[daspope 146]

this is my first time trying to snipe a running player, and boy do I suck... between fumbling with my ranging and flat out missing, this guy must have thought he was bullet proof... until the end.

Classic mistake, chasing the zero. If you look where the bullets fell just before you said "dammit i need to adjust again" you cansee that you didn't need to change your zeroing. You can clearly see dirt puffing up right where you hit, to the left of his feet. Take your time, see where your shots fall, then correrct. Dont readjust the zero with each missed shot, thats blaming the rifle, not the shooter. The problem wasn't the zero you weren't leading enough.

And shame on that player for running in the open and not right against the wall.

lol yeah the problem was totally the shooter (me) and not the rifle. next time hopefully I will take my time more.
