This is a forensic acoustic analysis done by a guy who is involved in fricking food testing. The guy has absolutely no background that I can find in audio signal analysis or forensics.
He is relying on a number of assumptions we do not know to be true (the caliber of the weapon being a good one). He is using audio from cellphones, recorded in an open windy environment, then uploaded to youtube, then downloaded backdown. All of that significantly degrades the already poor audio recorded by mediocre microphones.
Also building an acoustic profile of an area as complex as the Las Vegas strip is a crazy difficult task. There are so many buildings and other echoes to take into account.
Tl;Dr video is suspect at best.

I found the video worth the time, mathematics is mathematics, physics is physics.
If you put in the wrong data, you get wrong answers, the information, whether perfect or whatever, is worth taking the time or I would not have posted it IMHO
