Canadian Snipers in Afganistan.

On the 7th of Aug 2002, a Canadian sniper took the longest confirmed kill on
a human- 2310m!

Yet on the following day, 8 Aug, the record was beaten, 2430m kill!

Rifle was a McMillan, 5 shot Bolt action .50BMG.
Ammo is supposed to have been 686gr M33 Ball @ 2900fps, even at that muzzle
velocity, bullet would have taken about 3 seconds to reach the Taliban
target!

Det må vel innrømmes å være en noe spesiell form for jakt, i allefall
her....
