Officer Drops Shooter; One Shot

[Jambo]

either a Vet, or a competition shooter, like USPSA, to hit with a red dot that far away.

Not necessarily. I know quite a few people who could make a torso hit on a target 180 yards away, even with irons.

But your average shooter would have trouble with it for sure. In my somewhat limited experience, most vets would have trouble as well.

I’m doubting the 180…and what’s in front of the red dot?
Cool customer tho…and good shot with no good rest.

At 183 yards, nice shot for sure. Would have been more impressive if he didn't have to put his coffee down.

Cool calm and calculated

I'm thinking he's a veteran with combat experience. He fell right into training like it was second nature. Need more cops like that

Most likely

After he took the shot he got on radio and said; "Shot 'fired' -Shooter down" Burhaha

Wonder why this wasn’t a national story.

Simply because it didn't fit the agenda

Nice shootin’…

It’s not the distance or the fact that he was using a red dot, it’s the officers “coolness” that suggests he was possibly a veteran. I can make a shot at a human sized torso at that distance with a red dot or irons, but taking that shot at a human is a different story.
