TrackingPoint rifles: Tech that makes everyone accurate

TrackingPoint, Inc. is a company based out of Austin, Texas that has developed a weapon system that "locks on" to your target, and decides the best time to take the shot by itself, as shown in this demonstration video.

The system features a computerized scope, which initially just displays a magnified view with crosshairs. The shooter lines up the crosshairs with the intended target, then "tags" the target. A small red box will appear around the target, and as the riflescope moves, the dot will remain on the same place on the target. Next, the scope computer calculates a "firing solution" taking into account distance and windage. The shooter must simply align the crosshairs of the scope with the box, and pull the trigger. The rifle will not fire until the crosshairs are aligned. Within a distance of 1000 yards, shots fired will hit within a hands width from the target, giving the average person sniper-like accuracy.

Currently, TrackingPoint is working on producing three rifles: One chambered in .338 Lapua, and two smaller rifles chambered in .300 Winchester Magnum. No retail prices have been announced, but there are rumors of $15k-$20k prices.
