ok skeptic (& why I have no fucking idea other then as Cell said - Sunday night)

The 5 Longest-Distance Sniper Kills in Military History

The top five longest-distance confirmed sniper kills all came from shots fired at more than a mile away, with the top two coming in from more than two miles away.

Does that link work for y'all?

Why the hell am I bothering........

The military.com reference claims only one kill. Not a two-fer.

One would be less skeptical if the stories were consistent.

I was impressed that he got anyone from 2+ miles away.

I remember seeing that..............................

After reading the military.com link it brought to light something I never thought about. Don't have the article open now & I maybe off by a bit but I believe it said that once you get past 2.5 miles the curvature of the earth begins to degrade your accuracy or the bullets ability to stay on a true path..
