Despite even more military cuts, it is great to see that the CF still puts out outstanding snipers. This confirmed kill was over 3.5km (2+ miles) away! Awesome work guys!

To all you 50 cal gurus, if on the flat how much would he have had to raise the aim, about.
Couple charts to wet your whistle..
Don't laugh at the M79.
Similar elevation would be needed for a shot like this..
