[hunt1je]

Thats good to go. I bet that record will stand for a loooong time.

[schroetf]

maybe it's another sniper hoax---

I was just watching somthing about the Canadian Sniper the other day. WoW what a shot.

[TaxMan]

That is some amazing shooting, 1.54 miles....WOW!

Bet Carlos Hathcock would have liked the 338 Lapua and the 50 cals.

caliber was .338 lapua mag.

Doesn't have the range to do that.

+1500 Long Shot and he unlocked the Sure Shot banner!

[Commuta_Busa]

I hope he recovered well from his injuries. I would hate to hear that an IED took him out of his sniper abilities.

so when is the hybred .50 cal lapua coming out?

[GSXRFANN]

I like it!! I wish more of them could get taken out like that! They should just go ahead and give it up. This is just a useless waste of lives (our guys).

Harrison was using the British Army’s newest sniper rifle, the L115A3chambered in .338 Lapua, which as Kit Up readers know has a heck of a following among sharpshooters both in and out of the military. We also know that the US Army is changing its precision sniper rifle to the 300 WinMag round, setting up a Battle Royal among gun nuts for boasting rights on the best round for the war zone.

at 1600 meters it has more energy than a 308 at 400 meters. at an elevation i dont see it being out of the question.

If he used that caliber it would make it that much better to me
Either way hats off mate !
