    Yes, and in the movie the protagonist shoots a can of stew at long range. A ridiculously tenuous pop culture allusion

    Yes and it did not come out of the book. Like many films the book series is much better.

    Still a nice shot though!

    I figured you noticed but your rifle jumps a little when you shoot off the bipod - didn't look like you came straight back onto the target naturally. This is likely contributing to your groups?
