That's 4 near-simultaneous shots, all of which must incapacitate their targets, from a moving object to another moving object at a considerable distance. I'm guessing the difficulty factor is pretty well up there. Moreover, the heavy sniper rifles that would provide the best stability of shot at the ranges in question are heavy enough to go through a target to hit the person -- maybe a merchie captain -- behind it.

Not undoable, but I think we're talking a very tough call and fairly steep difficulty factor.
