[quote=@Foster] Scoped. Mosin. Nagant. -Being shot by a blind guy. *applauds choice of uber-custom Remington 700* -Before that, Marine-snipers used the Winchester Model 70, the rifle used by Carlos in his infamous "through the scope" headshot. Also, I vote for Cleveland, Ohio. Also, I'm probably going to hold-in what happened to my first cat and the story of how I learned headshots (and blunt-force) [i]aren't nearly as instant[/i] as the movies sell it to be. (he nearly lived to be 21... was planning on sharing a beer with him) -Yes, even if a chunk of brain gets ejected out the nose. Which kinda makes you wonder how [i]if 90% of the time headshots kill from blood-loss[/i], if it'll [i]ever[/i] reliably work against zombies (especially in the case of pistol-rounds such as the .380 ACP). ^That lil tidbit makes zombies, IMO when coupled with the difficulty of making a headshot in the first place, [i]a lot scarier.[/i] Another story was of how a hunter dumped an entire shotgun-tube of 20-gauge 7/8 oz slugs into a deer's head at point blank... still wasn't quite dead enough for field-dressing. It also slid quite a distance down the cliff (the idea was to completely stop it from moving so it [i]would not[/i] slide into the rivine). And then there's the Thompson-LeGarde tests, which were pretty much best-case pistol-headshot scenarios... rather disappointing performance from the .500 Express.
