Actually Carlos Hathcock II had 97 confirmed kills but was responsible for many more unconfirmed. Chris Kyle had 160 kills with many more unconfirmed but still regards Hathcock as the better sniper. States in his book he just had a more "target rich" environment.

Hey, thanks for the info. Checked out their website, the "for human users only" part might be a problem though. The gnomes, elves, and faries are a bit peeved.

Recently finished "Taken" by Robert Crais. If Joe Pike & Elvis Cole are after you, you are in big time trouble.
