Amazing accuracy from long distance. I assume he was using a .50 caliber rifle but that’s only because I know very little about high powered weapons.
How many rifles can consistently hit these long distance shots?

I believe the Brit's use .338 Lapua.

I have a friend who dropped an NVA colonel from 1400 yards with a 7.62 NATO round. The colonel was standing at a blackboard (outdoors), teaching a class of troops.

Talk about psychological impact!

“Shock & Awe!”
