    The distance (~200m) was an average shot for anyone who shoots rifles of the type used, like deer hunters.

    Anyone who thinks the shooter was aiming for the neck is wrong, the best target would be the chest with that type of rifle so it probably hit a little higher than intended.

      I’m betting the rifle is zeroed at 100 yards and he went for an MLG pro gamer headshot. 30-06 zeroed at 100 yards has a few inches drop at 160 yards leading to a neck shot.
