One of which was done by someone who was kicked off a shooting team for being a dangerously bad shot.
Give me a modern 30 cal hunting rifle, a good scope, ammo, and a benchrest at a 200 yard range and a target. I could teach you to hit a head-sized target in an afternoon, including time to dial in the scope. Hardest skill to learn is calming your nerves when it’s a real human head.
We just watched 2 botched attempts at assassination recently. Its clearly not an easy thing to pull off on high profile targets.

And I’m telling you none of that good shot shit matters because the average person would not be able to remain calm for that. You need training.
And I’m telling you it’s hardly impossible.
Edit: and it’s very telling that you didn’t consider that factor until I brought it up.
