Paul Neri is going to have a seizure after seeing this. Should have put a trigger warning on it, kind sir. Updoots for you and reddit gold nonetheless.

Wow,you can really see the bullets in the night vision.

Judging from the optical scale increments and assuming that the ammo is of standard Russian mil-spec 7.62x39 I would wager that those two targets were 425 yards away (not meters) with a 10mph,left to right cross wind...assuming that I'm reading the "scale" accurately, the flight time of both projectiles was .76 seconds at a velocity of 1,150 FPS at time of impact, the "hold over" to compensate for drop in trajectory would have been 75 inches with windage allowance being 3.5 - 4ft...anybody else care to speculate within the bounds of actual formulation and not a wild guess?

7.62x39 is not standard Russian mil-spec. ammo, and they are snipers which is why they have a spotter cam. Standard Russian ammo is 5.45x39.

AK47 vrs AK74...IM still banking on the 7.62 at that distance...I misstated with the use of the word "standard" but the tracer trail looked à bit large for à 50grn 5.45...the 425 yrd distance would still be an effective kill range for the 5.45 but is close to max effective range at that distance. IM basing my assumption on my interpretation of the scale ie the target size relative to the optical graduations and at that distance à heavier grain bullet is more effective, but hey, at least you countered with an intelligent response...AND...you could be right and I may be wrong.

This is the 14.5x114mm Snipex rifle both sides have been using.

Doesn't even look like a tracer, it's just an infrared scope cam, which Russian and US snipers teams use. - Russian and Ukranian snipers are using crazy stuff in this current war, all sorts if calibers. From 6.5 creedmor to 338 Lapua to some crazy 14mm sniper rifles. Check out the combat footage groups on Telegram app. Download it from telegram.org They post crazy stuff. I'll try to find a link to the 14mm sniper video

What is a Ukraine?

I think it is either a large lifting device you operate yourself, or a statement about the weather most days in the United Kingdom.
