Even if you can hit a stationary target at a klic, shooting at that distance has about a 2 second travel time, and real targets have a habit of staying in motion after the first shot.  Even professionals don't like to have to perform at that range.  And good luck hitting a dog at more than 100 yards.  Once that trained doberman where you are, you've got about ten seconds to hit him & his littermate before they are on you at a starting range of 100 yards, whether or not they are deliberately trained or just a feral pack.  Boast about your skills like that and I'm going to have to call bullsh*t.

I was just being sarcastic, but i see you take this shit quite seriously. I have aspirations of shooting accurately from 1000 yards...

sorry, I didn't parse the sarcasm.  Yes, I do take this shit seriously.  I was once a professional.  Not a sniper, mind you, but in a related field.

There are no washing instructions, but the liner is nylon as far as i can tell, and the outside is jute I believe. No reason it cant be washed, but I would do it by hand, because I have a feeling that a washing machine would rip a lot of the threads out. You could try turning it inside out before washing, which might help, but yeah.

If you wash it, I'll buy it. Motherfuckers will never find me with my anti glare scope and ghillie rifle kit

No defense against an infrared scope, though.

Or trained dogs.

not worried about trained dogs at 1000+ yds

I'd be interested as well, if it wasn't a little big on someone 6 feet tall.  I'm much smaller than that, and relatively skinny.  

EDIT:  You look like the Swamp Thing.

Yeah the sleeve length (aka the liner) is elastic and not too long, but the threads extend much farther than that, thus covering most of my hands. Long story short, it's going to be loose on most everyone, because that's how it was made.

Haha to tell you the truth I never wore it outside, and only half a dozen times. But I'll check to see if there are washing instructions.

can this be washed/cleaned? I'm interested in buying this as long as it does not have your bodily fluids/odor all over it.

I bought this a few years ago just for kicks, and while it was fun to scare people with, I haven't really used it. I'm moving to Oregon in two weeks and I really don't want to take it with me.

While functional, this suit is not top-shelf quality. It's three pieces: pants, jacket, and hood. The pants have a drawstring elastic waist and the jacket's sleeves are really long. So unless you are gargantuan, this will fit you. I'm 6' 160 and it was a bit roomy.

Price is 5 btc shipped to the US only. I won't ship to CA or INT, it's just too much hassle for this particular thing.

I have heat under xDGDZEx.

I'm on btc-otc, and I'm also willing to use an escrow service (I have used btcrow in the past and had good experiences).

Bonus Tip -> Great to scare cats with!
