Whoo-rah Sniper with the longest distance kill
World longest distance kill – 2,430 metres(1.5 miles) – Stupid Beaver
Canadian snipers in Afghanistan after September 11th made the longest recorded kills in history with this weapon. On a March afternoon in 2002, Cpl. Furlong of the Princess Patricia’s Canadian Light Infantry (PPCLI) squinted through the scope of his McMillan TAC-50 and successfully killed an enemy combatant from 2,430 m.
It was and still is the longest-ever recorded kill by a sniper in
combat, surpassing the mark of 2,250 m set by U.S. Marine Gunnery Sgt.
Carlos Hathcock during the Vietnam War.
