old skool. note all snipers have accurised M14s, fielded as replacement for the obsolete mauser 98K. ghilie suits are still a distant dream, so do propper sniper gear such as spotter scopes

Is the Uzi the side arm of choice for Israeli snipers? Its interesting that in the current environment snipers here have been carrying AKs or MP5s in addition to their sniper rifles.IDF SF snipers, mostly inf recon units. note extensive use of mauser 86SR rifles, and its successor SR25
NEVER!!! That is an MP.Net Hall of Famer!!

Mini-Uzi to be precise. And there are no Mini-Uzis in the "regular" infantry units (no Uzis in IDF at all, except perhaps female non-combat basic training).
Question:
Can a sniper accurately get the target's distance using this reticle or any other scope reticle?
I ask because a while ago there was this short clip I watched where a former SEAL was giving a lecture about getting the target distance based on the target's height. He began to draw a right triangle but that was when the clip was cut-off.
Thanks...
I don't know about "accurately", but knowing the angular units of markings on your optical device (binocular, sniper sight, scope etc) and the size of object you are looking at (e.g. assuming an average height of a standing man) you can calculate the distance. For example, the standard unit we used in IDF (I imagine this is an international standard at least in metric system) is mils, which means that a marking 1mil long on your optics corresponds to 1meter at 1000meters distance. So, for example, if you looking at a person occupying 1mil in your scope, you can assume that he is at distance of 1800meters (assuming height of 1.8m for a man). Sometimes the inverse is what you are looking for - e.g., knowing the distance from, say, the laser range finder, you'd want to find out what you are looking at in poor visibility conditions, an animal or human, for example.
