When I saw it on TV thought it was a bolt action but now see it was a 10-22, good work by a good guy with a gun
It can't be a sniper rifle if it took 150 shots to sever the rope... 
Not the rope, the tree branch

"Galvin used a neighbor’s .22 caliber rifle to sever the rope and free the bird."
Did I miss something?

the video?
Ok, my mistake. First video I watched reported he shot the tree branch to free the Eagle. I guess I need to follow more than one news source.
The news report I saw on tv said he shot through the branch and showed the branch where it had been severed with lead marks from the bullets.
This video shows the branch at 1:30 and he says it took 150 shots because he had to clear out some branches.

We used to shoot dragonflies when they would lite on a weed.
