Nothing to do with Landrovers, excepted that they were developed after this war, but an interesting read anyway

Military statistics have revealed that during the second world war it usually it took 25 000 shots to kill a soldier, the sniper needed an average of 1.3- the allies had every right to worry about the German snipers

not a bad average......
