|---|---|---|
| A sniper can kill another sniper by shooting straight through the scope. (From Firearms Folklore) | Plausible | Using a period-correct Mosin-Nagant PU scope (which has less glass) and a .30-06 armor piercing round, Jamie's shot went completely through the sight and penetrated two inches into the target dummy—deep enough to be a possibly lethal hit. Shots with standard ball ammunition produced less successful results. |
