Not that this would be the first time if I am wrong.  |
It is a record taking into consideration the caliber(.303 which is almost like a British 30-06), distance of the target(300m), size of the target(12 inches), and the amount of rounds put into that target in 1 minute(38 rounds). It is hard to hit such a small target at that distance with iron sights and a rack grade weapon.
The Lee-Enfield is known for it's quick cycling; in WWI, the Germans thought that they were taking machine gun fire when in fact it was volley fire done by a bunch of guys with Lee-Enfields!
