You should google a Canadian soldier named Leo Major. He served in WW2 and Korea and is very interesting.

@@Getactivewithcat would be a different story if he was against a sniper. But in this situation he can try many times and still his position not be located.

Yes, many many people just have no idea about the Black Watch. They were incredibly effective.

As far as I know, the Whitworth rifles were hexagonal so as to have the best rifling and fitting possible with the tools available at the time. They were most accurate sniper rifles in the world for some time as far as I know.

Harrisons shot was the second longest shot not the third as for this one the projectile's energy would be next to nothing at that range so show us the body.

@@paulchandler9646 I believe Harrison was the third, an Aussie got the second in 2012 (en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Longest_recorded_sniper_kills), as for the Whitworth, it was built with light ammunition that could hit a target at a maximum range of 2,000 yards (further than even the 1853 Enfield Rifle), even Queen Victoria when firing the gun for the first time hit a bullseye at 400 yards, if you have any evidence for what you say, I'd be happy to look at it.

@@GimmePaypalKid No, actually I believe Albert Johnson is correct, it was the second longest at 2707 yards. Third place was another Canadian at 2657 yards, fourth place was another Canadian at 2526 yards and fifth place was an American at 2515 yards. As stated, first place was a Canadian at 3871 yards. I say I believe Albert Johnson is correct, because I did see one site which mentioned the Aussie sniper. I found the information which I provided from four other independent sites however, with exactly the same info as that which I provided.

@@GimmePaypalKid Me again. I looked this up and found out why the Australian sniper is not counted officially. Apparently two Australian snipers took the same shot in concert at the same target, so that increases the likelihood that one of the snipers would hit the target. It is for this reason the Australian sniper is not counted in the official records. Cheers.

Wow! Now I can really appreciate that shot! Thanks!

You're not taking altitude into the calculation

@@highlanderfreelancer4553 I didn't take altitude into this equation. Altitude's effect on wind resistance is minimal, it would affect hold but not velocity.

Some incredible information there. Can you give us an idea what it would be like to shoot at these distances? Is it pure luck that you would hit? Would you be able to see the target through the scope? A U.S sniper was quoted in saying "at these ranges you also have to calculate the curvature of the earth" is this right? The bullet would have lost a lot of its speed by the time its hit the target, what speed do you think the bullet would be travelling at on impact? Thanks

or maybe its an extremly lucky shot or didnt happen at all.

Someone with some sense. People trying to say it’s all luck. Or anyone with that info could do it.. you still have to account for flinch, trigger pull, recoil, weather. There is a really good reason you don’t hear of these shots often. Even the ultra long range guys running .408’s or .375 cheytacs are not hitting these shots cold bore, they walk into it. Let alone like you said about the ammo, 50 bmg is not a tier 1 long range round either.

Curvature of the earth, also has to be taken into account.

"Get fucked." - This Canadian Sniper, definitively. kzfaq.info/get/bejne/nsiCnq6Ly9HclH0.html

Quick note: .50 BMG, not .50 HMG. The latter refers to the mounted M2 Browning heavy machine gun .338 Lapua Magnum or .338 LM, not .338 Magnum. The latter is often used to refer to the hunting cartridge .338 Winchester Magnum.

@@saintejeannedarc9460 Oh right! Before the 2430m shot way back when in Afghanistan they hit someone at...2000m? Can't remember now. Two records were set within a day or so, no?

All of the shots I could find over 2300 meters were Australian, Canadian, or UK snipers. Not just the record shots either. If you want prolific snipers though you have to got to Finland Sweden and Norway. Simo Hayha for example-500+ confirmed kills in 100 days (+200 using a submachinegun). That said a Royal Marine got 90 confirmed kills in 24 hours once. That must have been one hairy situation.

@@gordonlawrence1448 That goes to show then. All the downplayers that are trying to claim that anyone could have made the shots w/ the technology, but it was the Cdn guy and team that lucked into are full of it. I've been saying there has to be something about our weather, something about being forged in the Canadian arctic that creates better soldiers, certainly snipers. The fact that the best long shot, if not record holders are in sub arctic Scandinavia, just goes to show the arctic connection. I also like to think it has to do w/ consuming the best maple syrup in the world. I'm sure that's the piece de resistance that makes us the best in the world. I'm only half joking, lol.

Local farmers gave us a whopping 25 cents each. Then pheasants, rabbits and worked up from there for bigger game with bigger guns. I feel like I won the life lottery being born and raised in Canada!

Moose is a vulnerable species in most areas now, considering deer or rabbit hunting instead.
