Just How Far is a Mile and a Half?
Can you even see a guys face from a mile and a half away?
Rob Furlong, Sniper Shots Expert and World Record holder for longest confirmed sniper shot kill can.
Think about trying to hit anything from 18 blocks away, the broad side of a barn is even out of the question for me.
The physics involved and general observations of temperature, elevation, wind speed, barometric pressure and whatever else might affect bullet trajectory is mind boggling.
Amazing Sniper Shots
Rob Furlong, a former corporal of the Canadian Forces, holds the record for the longest confirmed sniper kill in combat.
2,430 metres (2,657 yd, 12.08 furlongs, or 1.51 miles).
Born in Fogo Island, Newfoundland, Furlong taught himself to fire a rifle ambidextrously.
In 2002, Furlong participated in Operation Anaconda in Afghanistan’s Shah-i-Kot Valley as a member of the 3rd Battalion of Princess Patricia’s Canadian Light Infantry (PPCLI).
His sniper team included MCpl. Graham Ragsdale (Team Commander), MCpl. Tim McMeekin, MCpl. Arron Perry, and Cpl.Dennis Eason.
McMillan TAC-50
A group of three al-Qaeda fighters was moving into a mountainside position when Furlong took aim with his Long Range Sniper Weapon (LRSW), a .50-caliber McMillan Brothers Tac-50 rifle and ammunition loaded with 750 gr Hornady A-MAX very-low-drag bullets.

Sniper Shots From 1.51 Miles Away
He began firing at a fighter carrying an RPK machine gun.
His first shot missed and his second shot hit the knapsack on the target’s back.
The third struck the target’s torso, killing him.
The distance was measured as 2,430 meters (2,657 yd / 1.509 miles).
With a muzzle speed of 823m/s (2,700 ft/s), each shot reached the target almost four seconds after Furlong fired.
This feat is not typical for the effective range with a high first-hit probability of the employed rifle on non-static targets (see maximum effective range).
The shot was aided by the ambient air density in the Shah-i-Kot Valley where Corporal Furlong operated, which is significantly lower than at sea level due to its 2,743 meter (9,000 ft) mean elevation.
