I've been reading on longest recorded sniper shots and see the longest confirmed shots are around 2,400m. A bit more or less for the different shots but lets call it that.
I'm not knocking the guys at all who've made these shots, they're all 10x better than I'll ever without question but at distances like 2,400m there must be so many influences sending the bullet all over the place.
Even if you had a 0.2 MOA rifle, by the time the bullets been flying for seconds and gone through a few directions of wind, different temperatures even maybe, a little movement from the shooter and everything else, it must be shooting dinner plates if you were doing everything and conditions were perfect. More likely wider?
Must be a lot of luck at that distance as well as their skill?
More realistically, what distance do you think a skilled sniper could constantly keep every shot inside say a 8" group.
