There's no way it was just a lucky shot. The sniper had to factor in air resistance, wind speed and direction, elevation, the spin of the bullet, and even the curvature of the earth, among other things.

That's the point.

If he applied It all correctly, then It was on target and very well judged. If not (miscalculated), then simply a lucky shot. Either way, the fact remains that he nailed his target.
