I’ve stumbled upon this when researching the Whitworth rifle, being fascinated by such an accurate black powder muzzle loader. I’ve also come to learn that this page had listed a confederate sharpshooter as one of the longest recorded sniper kills! Since recently he is no longer on the page and I wanted to know why exactly. That’s how I stumbled upon this “gem” and general slobba ukroni trying to fit some ukrainian guy as “the best”, of course… Never again, wikipedia is a fucking joke.
Ah, I was wrong! It’s not the Yod. It’s a different letter that represents a W.
My bad. I’ll edit my original comment.
