Chapter 46: Genius
At a distance of 25 meters, it seems close at first glance. But when you hold a gun in both hands, raise your arms flat, and try to aim with a three-point line www.biquge.info of the door, the crosshair, and the bull's-eye, you will suddenly find that the distance is much farther than usual. Coupled with a lack of arm strength and psychological tension, first-time gun players often find themselves in the rough sea, where everything in the line of sight is jolting and shaking, and it is difficult to aim at the target stably. In this case, even at a distance of 25 meters, there is a chance that the bullet will miss the target eight times out of ten @ nine times out of ten. He is a rare genius shooter who can get a bullet on the edge of the target paper.
Yuri originally thought that Zongheng was no different from the rookies he had encountered in the past. It wasn't until he picked up the gun and focused on the bull's-eye that he noticed something unusual.
The arms holding the gun are very stable. Neither as tight as some people, nor as loose and baggy as some people. He felt natural, as if the gun was an extension of his body, without the slightest awkwardness.
This shot will definitely hit the target. Yuri thought to himself. He has been dealing with guns all his life, and the state of the shooter can be seen at a glance.
With a "bang", he pulled the trigger and fired the first shot in his life.
"Four rings! That's great! Yuri holds a large military telescope in one hand. His shooting range is only used by guests to test guns on weekdays, and occasionally some old acquaintances like Hannah come to play, so he doesn't bother to equip the shooting range with electric target machines and target detectors. It's all manual.
For Zongheng, his eyesight and arm strength are far beyond ordinary people, and his mentality is also very stable, it stands to reason that the first shot should hit the bull's-eye. But the recoil of the pistol when it was fired, as well as the muzzle lift, was something he had never experienced. Therefore, the location of the first bullet hit was slightly different from what he expected.
The position of holding the gun was slightly adjusted, and the second shot was fired vertically and horizontally.
"Bang!"
"Eight rings! That's great! ”
In this shot, the muzzle of the gun was slightly pressed down, but it was slightly wider than a hair's hair. Sure enough, it was much better than the first shot.
"Bang!" After adjusting again, a third shot was fired.
"Ten rings! You're such a genius! Yuri looked excited.
"Bang!" Zongheng continued to fire a fourth shot.
"Huh? Off target? Yuri said uncertainly. He was an expert in using guns, and he knew that it was impossible for Zongheng to miss the target in his posture just now.
Since it is impossible to miss the target, then ......
"Won't it?" Yuri muttered to himself adjusting the focal length of the telescope.
"Keep it as you were just now, and I'll see if you shoot it again." Yuri held the telescope in both hands instead, looking extremely serious.
"Bang!" The fifth shot was fired.
"Shhh......hh
"What's wrong? Is it off target again? Hannah asked softly.
She didn't have a telescope, so she could only visually inspect the target paper without any bullet holes.
"We'll talk about that later." Yuri shook his head and said, "Nemo, there are three bullets left, and you can shoot them all in one go." The faster you play, the better. ”
Zongheng knew that Yuri must have seen it. He couldn't help but smile slightly, put down the gun, moved his wrist, and relaxed his muscles before shooting again.
"Bang! Bang! Bang! "There were continuous gunshots, and there were still no more than half bullet holes on the target paper.
Hannah was feeling strange when she saw a plume of green smoke suddenly rise from the bullseye of the target paper. In the blink of an eye, the wisp of green smoke turned into a flame, and then turned into a flame, burning the entire target paper to pieces.
"This! This...... It's not scientific! Hannah's eyes were about to fall out, and she stammered as she pointed to the target paper.
As a Ph.D. student in psychiatry, Hannah is not short of scientific literacy. But it was this scientific literacy that made it difficult for her to accept the reality in front of her. She knew that the bullets coming out of the chamber were hot, and that if they were fired at the same point in succession, it was possible to ignite the paper. However, a pistol is not a rifle, and the rounded bullet head and extremely short barrel make the trajectory of the pistol far less stable than that of a rifle. This, combined with the displacement of the gun caused by the recoil of each shot, as well as the gunner's own breathing, muscle tremors, and even the outside wind speed and air humidity, can have a significant impact on the trajectory of the pistol. It is already extremely inconceivable that two bullets hit the same point 25 meters away, let alone three times...... No! Is it five times?
Yuri was also shocked, and he kept muttering, "Genius...... Talented...... Genius ......"
Zongheng didn't know if he was a genius at shooting, but he knew that the reason why he was able to do this was because of his eyesight and the most delicate grasp of his body. The three test shots made him understand what kind of posture he could use to shoot the best result from standing in this position, and the next few shots, he just drew a scoop according to the feeling of the third shot. For him, it was not difficult at all.
But Yuri and Hannah don't know this, they only know that Zongheng has put on an extremely exaggerated shooting show in front of them. Yuri grabbed Zongheng's shoulders and shook him vigorously, asking as he went, "How did you do that?" You've had rigorous shooting training before, right? ”
Zongheng was dizzy by the giant bear-like man, and he quickly broke free from under Yuri's "bear paw" and said, "No! This is my first time playing shooting. ”
"Genius! You really are a rare traitor's genius! Yuri kept spinning in circles, repeating the word "genius," "You know what? If you go to the Olympics, with your talent, winning a gold medal is a breeze! No! Such a talent is just a waste of being an athlete! You should go to war, and if you are a sniper, you are definitely the strongest sniper who can change the course of war. Just like Vasily Zaitsev! ”
Zongheng didn't know who Vasily Zaitsev was, but he knew that with Yuri's excitement at this time, if he asked who Vasily Zaitsev was, the excited "giant bear" would not be able to pull him from dawn to dark. For the sake of his own precious time, Zongheng wisely decided to laugh it off.
Yuri apparently misunderstood the meaning of Zongheng's laughter, and he asked Zongheng and Hannah to wait for him, and then ran out in a hurry.
After a few moments, Yuri came running back with a long suitcase. He grabbed Zongheng's hand and said, "Go!" I'll take you to the field to play with a sniper rifle! That's a gunslinger's best toy! ”
Zongheng and Hannah have the heart to refuse, but Yuri, who is on the rise, can listen to it? He didn't even want to do business, so he directly told Mira to clean up and close the store. In the face of such hospitality, Zongheng and Hannah were really difficult to refuse, so they had to obey Yuri's meaning.
Then, Yuri and Mira drove in front of them, and Zongheng and Hannah followed in their own car, and the group of four drove for nearly an hour to reach their destination.
This is a farm with no village in front and no shop in the back. The land was empty and level, and there were no other buildings except the house where the farmer himself lived and a barn. If it is convenient to play with guns, this is indeed a good place that is not easy to disturb others.
The owner of the farm is a scruffy middle-aged white man. Yuri got out of the car and talked to him for a while, then he went back to the house and never came out.
Yuri led Zongheng and the others to a clearing on the farm and opened the suitcase containing the sniper rifle.
The rifles in the alley had been dismantled into parts and stuffed into slots made of black sponge according to their shapes.
Zongheng noticed that the rifle had an exceptionally large barrel and magazine. The HKP7 he was playing earlier looked like a dwarf compared to this gun.
"Barrett M81A1, total weight 11.36 kg, total length 1.28 meters, using 2 times 12.5 mm large-caliber BMG ammunition of the M99 heavy machine gun, 10-round magazine feeding method, muzzle velocity 853 meters per second, accurate and effective range 1850 meters, maximum range 6800 meters." Yuri pointed to the gun in the box and said, "Although it is very discouraging to praise the opponent's weapon as a soldier in the former Soviet Union, I have to admit that this is the gun that a real man should use." ”
As he spoke, he leaned over and pulled out the parts from the box, and quickly installed the gun at a speed disproportionate to his size.
Seeing the whole picture of this gun, Zongheng had to admit that Yuri was absolutely right. The ruggedness, heaviness and great power of this gun that can be seen at a glance are indeed very much in line with the appetite of the vertical and horizontal. He couldn't wait to try out what it was like to shoot with this gun.
But Mira objected to it. She said, "Daddy! The recoil of this gun is enormous. Are you sure Nemo can use it? ”
Yuri laughed: "Don't worry! Although he only used the HKP7 with very little recoil in the store just now, it can be seen from his shooting accuracy that his body is extremely powerful. This little recoil is completely trivial to him! ”
Hearing Yuri's praise for Nemo, Mira looked skeptical. After all, no one would believe that a weak-looking teenager like Nemo could really handle this anti-materiel sniper rifle like a prehistoric monster without seeing the results of vertical and horizontal shooting.
But soon, Nemo told Mira with the facts that there are really people in this world who can't look like this.
In order to have more fun, Yuri did not use a paper target, but placed an iron plate the size of a door panel 1,500 meters away as a target.
After teaching Zongheng how to use the scope and how to adjust the trajectory according to the wind speed, Yuri took the initiative to act as an observer of Zongheng, lying next to him and watching Zongheng shoot the first shot.
