          I watched it as 5. It was very good. Amazing how much goes into being a sniper that isn't shooting.

              I remember years ago when the Special Forces snipers would kick the euro and Brits butts. I think have since stepped up their game because they realized how far behind the curve they were. The SF guys are tough, tough guys.

                  Seems all used AR-10's? Some of those rifles look custom made.

                    Yeah I noticed that too. Only one or two teams they showed were running bolt guns. Lots of Leupold scopes too. Saw one team with a Nightforce.

                        M110, which is the SR-25. All the rifles (and ammo) are provided by match organizers (military). Competitors can choose from a list, but the SR-25 is sub-moa so they wouldn't be giving up much to bolt guns other than the trigger. The competitors have to bring their own optics, other than provided ACOGs. I'm guessing this has to do with years ago when some of the foreign teams couldn't find ammo in the U.S. that would shoot worth a darn in their rifles.
