Thanks for going to the trouble of listing the ballistic table for the round used, as well as max for visual ID.
And you did not even mention the kinetic energy of the bullet at that extreme range. The bullet probably would have if it hit his head just bounced off and left a bruise. As for the scope's maximums, again roger that.

Hasan “Not One of Our Own,” Soldier Says (’Soldiers Do Not Do This to Each Other’)

1st Responder to Scene of Deadly Shooting Says “Soldiers Do Not Do This to Each Other”; Fort Hood Seeks Return to Normalcy

Soldiers at Fort Hood continued to display a mix of anger and disbelief at Maj. Nidal Hasan’s alleged role in the deadly shooting rampage that left 13 people dead and dozens more wounded.

“I can’t really say this was done by one of our own. Soldiers do not do this to each other,” said 1st Sgt. James McLeod, a first responder to the scene whose unit suffered three fatalities.

But for the first time in almost a week at Fort Hood, there was a homecoming of troops from war - a bittersweet time for the post still grieving last week’s shooting. Nearly 300 members of the 1st Cavalry Division returned home Tuesday night after a year in Iraq - the first such reunion since last Thursday’s deadly rampage, reports CBS News correspondent Don Teague.

“It’s kind of bittersweet to me,” Jennifer Goetz, the wife of returning soldier Specialist Sean Goetz told Teague. “So much loss and then just so much happiness right now and love and joy.”
