The .223 is not a sniper round as MagiK has said. When I was in the Marines we qualified from 200,300,and 500 yards on the M-16A1. And 500 was really pushing it. Marine snipers use a Remington .308, 30-06, or .50. Likely this guy was trained on a .223 and has a spiffy assault rifle that he thinks makes him cool. Personally I'd like to shoot him with my own spiffy assault rifle.
And 250 I read the book by Carlos Hathcock also, the guy was amazing. He has since died of Parkinsons disease a few years ago.
