How anyone can claim 700 'confirmed' kills is beyond me. Im sure they killed a fair few but I think the totals need a pinch of salt or three.

Must say I these days at least partly agree still. However when I read the German sniperīs book ( sorry forgot the name by now but it is in the What did you read section ) some occasions where sniper could really make big kill numbers were shown on the Eastern front. The sniper went to the other side of "canyon" and own troops started driving the enemy to that direction with their attack. The sniper had a clear view and killed some 20-30 enemies in one hour....
