Is 200 yards skilled?

This is America, so I'm assuming y'all have better marksmen than me and that's not even a moving target. That's sub 200m shot, if you've got a stable firing position that's really not that bad.

    Literally every veteran could make that shot with iron sights. We had to qualify on 200 yard targets. With a scope, you could probably include every hunter in the US as well. 200 yards isn't a long shot.

    Oh yeah, and every single Girlscout or Bouscout that has their archery badge, or their shooting badge, not marksman that's a different badge, would be able to make that shot.
