There's one chapter in Walter Craig's "Enemy at the Gates." It's about Stalingrad but that one chapter has the sniping duel in it.

If you would like to read sniping stories, we've our own thread here at The High Road.

I believe that Point of Impact was Hunter's first sniping-oriented book. Entertaining, but how seriously can you take someone who has a central plot point hinge on the "fact" that at 1000 yards or whatever ridiculous distance, knowing windage was a piece of cake for the knowledgeable, but distance was just too difficult to really be a sure thing? And this for a guy who was lugging around a Wild or a Barr & Stroud, and had plotted out the location. Stephen Hunter is entertaining, and has put a lot of time into catching up for a firearm-deprived childhood, and is a genuine good guy, but John Ross he ain't.
