In all fairness, do you think the secret service trains to engage moving targets beyond a thousand yards. I'm thinking that they probably train against barricaded targets , perhaps in body armor at ranges inside 300 yards. I'd bet a nickel, none of their elite has DOPE outside of 500 yards. Just my .02 cents worth.
 
90% of a LE sniper team's function is to provide overwatch, and gather and provide intelligence. LEO snipers for the most part not full time snipers-they perform other LEO duties and thus do not have unlimited time to spend behind the gun. One more aspect of LEO sniper duties is that they would rarely take a shot beyond 100 yards. I am not in the least surprised the USA team did so well-it's what they do.
