How British army sniper once killed SIX terrorists with a single bullet

[Madmallard]

A BRITISH army sniper once killed six terrorists with a single bullet from one of the Army’s most powerful guns.

The unidentified marksman, a Lance Corporal in the Coldstream Guards, hit the target from 930 yards (850 metres) away while in Kakaran in southern Afghanistan.

All six terrorists were killed after a single bullet hit the trigger of a suicide bomber’s vest, which exploded killing everyone around him, The Daily Telegraph reported.

The odds of hitting the vest's trigger on a shot like that and having 5 other bg's close enough? I would have had somebody in the US buy me a lottery ticket that day.

While I think most brits are pussies this is pretty cool. Now if they only fought for thier own rights or thier countries safety.

That is a bad ass shot but when I first saw this I pictured six guys in a row or some crazy ricochet. Too many cartoons in my youth.
