A British sniper who served in Afghanistan was confirmed to have the longest distant sniper kill in history! With three shots, he was able to take out two Taliban fighters (the third round destroyed their machine gun) at a ranger of 2,620 meters (1.62 miles)!!! The amazing thing was, he used a L115A3 8.6mm Lapua Magnum round. This round is smaller than the American .50 cal round. Good one Chap!
