Being forced yearly to shoot at a target 300m away with non-magnifying sights: what makes you think that you cannot see such a target?
FWIW: 17 out of 20 rounds have to hit the roughly torso-sized target to pass.

- potta_coffee 8y agoDuring my last rifle qualification, I was able to hit 10/10 rounds on the 19" silhouette at 500m - USMC trains at a further distance. I've done this with iron sights and optics. It's not very difficult.
