self aiming sniper rifles

[buck440]

thought it was pretty interesting. a .308 accurate to 3,600ft and a .50 bmg accurate up to 4.5 miles.

The Lockheed system has been around for about two years in beta testing. Barret has had their BORS system for sale now for about 3 years. They truley are amazing systems, but to call them "self-aiming" is incorrect. The system will work only as well as the rifleman behind the gun will allow it. They are simply adjusting mil-dot reticles.

never seen it on shooter:confused: . yah i forgot barret had the bors. self adjusting would be more appropriate. it would still be cool for the average joe to put a .338 lapua center mass 2 miles away.

do some research on ".408 cheytac system". you'll be blown away with the distances guys are getting first shot/cold bore hits.
