Canadians hold the record with a 2430-meter shot


To hit a person, mind you. Not a truck, tank, car, tent, or anything else. A 5'8", dirty, smelly, terrorist skum ball.

I can't talk to much smack about Canada...since I'm married to a Canadian...

Not to take anything away from our Neighbors to the North, but that record has been broken by a Brit... TWICE! He killed two taliban insurgants with 2 shots from 8,120 feet (2706.66 yards or 2474.976 meters) with an Accuracy International L115A3 chambered in .338 Lapua. Then fired a 3rd round, striking their PKM machinegun. i don't care who ya are, that's some mighty fine shooting!

World's longest sniper kill - 2.47km twice!
