The second and third furthest confirmed sniper kills were made by two different Canadians from the same unit within a few days of each other. They were also made using the same model of rifle, the McMillan Tac-50, and using the same type of ammunition, the Hornady A-MAX in .50 BMG. MstrCpl Arron Petty broke Carlos Hathcocks's record by 24 m, about a quarter of a football field. A few days later, Cpl Rob Furlong beat his teammate's shot by 120 m, just over a football field and a quarter.
Rob Furlong kept his record for approximately 7 years, 8 months until he was beat by CoH Craig Harrison. Craig Harrison used a L115A3 and his ammunition was .338 Lapua Magnum LockBase B408. He beat Furlong's record by 45 m, a foot short of half a football field.

This is what CoH Harrison would have seen when aiming his shot.






This is the highest zoom level of his scope. The man isn't centered on the scope's crosshairs because of the adjustment of bullet drop due to gravity and the Coriolis effect (rotation of the Earth). CoH Harrison reported no wind at the time of the shot. If the bullet were to have maintained full velocity, it would have taken 2-3 seconds to get there. I would estimate that the loss of velocity would have added a second or two to the flight time, possibly more. It would have taken the sound of that shot four times as long to reach the target than it did the bullet.

That I can breathe underwater. It's difficult, though, gotta be careful not to swallow the water.

I discovered the reality we live in is actually a dream, and to escape to the real world we have to kill ourselves.

In my world you are in a reality, which makes what you said false. You're just being defiant with your imagination!

In my world, your world is always the opposite of the truth so that means if your world says my world is false then that means my world is true because your world is telling the opposite of the truth.

Your world is in your imagination, though, and your imagination is false because you are living in my world. My world is the truth. You escape to your imagination because you don't enjoy living in my world, which is why you have become a hermit. You should start living again!
