He kicked back hard, so the shooter was using a powerful rifle, I suppose a sniper rifle. Wound is huge, not a pistol wound.

He was shot in the neck because the shooter is amateur and didn't account for the bullet drop on this distance.

This isn't call of duty, a basic hunting rifle will do the same holes as a "sniper rifle"
I did not say it was something like an m82. I just wanted to say I believe it wasn't a pistol.
There are handungs used for defense against brown bears, look at 10mm, or even 500 mag, 454 casull, you can shoot this from a handgun. It's very unlikely to be the case here but you wouldn't be able to tell just from the damages
