Sniper record: Who created the longest sniper record in the world? What gun was used? What year was it created?
According to The Sunday Times, craig harrison is a senior sniper of the Royal British Cavalry. Last June, 5438+065438+1October, in an encounter in southern Afghanistan, he accurately "killed" two Taliban militants 2,475 meters away with an L 1 15A3 long-range rifle and rescued a trapped Taliban.

It is reported that Harrison's bullet was flying at three times the supersonic speed, and the probability of hitting the target at such a long distance was less than one in a million! Incredibly, it was not until Harrison returned to Britain a few days ago that he realized that he had set a new "world record for the farthest shooting", which was 45 meters more than the record set by Canadian sniper Rob Fulong eight years ago.
