Didn’t a Brit sniper just set a world record of a 1 1/2 mile hit?

The enemy targets were more than a mile away ....

[the rifle,] which has an effective range of 1,100 metres

... a mile is 1600 metres, so at "more than a mile away", the targets were well outside the effective range, making this even more impressive.

.338 Lapua for the win. That round, that rifle, and the well-trained Brits using it are certainly making waves!

This guy is needed in Los Angeles & Arizona.

Wonder how much it would slow down illegals coming across the river if they were picked off from a long distance?

Would be fun to find out.
