3 seconds for the bullets to hit after fired... Hotshot sniper in one-and-a-half mile double kill - Times Online
This must have been an awesome few shots. It says that he fired 3 rounds all of which hit their targets. Two insurgents and one shot for their LMG to put it out of action. This is pretty impressive for that rifle type to have reached 8,120 ft when its effective range is only 4600ft. The previous record was set with a rifle whose effective range was at 6570ft but the shot was made at 7,972ft. Very impressive stuff, thanks for sharing.
I'd like one of those rifles! As stated in the article (at that distance), "it is as much luck as skill", but I also noticed the shooter "got lucky" three times in a row!
