General / Off-Topic Longest Confirmed Sniper Shot at 2.2 Miles!

I read some where that it took the bullet up to 10 seconds to reach the target, I think that is a bit too long, however: It still must have taken seconds, which means that the target was very still, or it was a very experienced guess, to hit the target. Either way; a fantastic shot.
 
Sounds like one of those impossible shots, but anyways, as a shooter myself this is really a great achievement regarding making a long shot and hit target.

"with some 13,000 foot-pounds of force when it comes out of the muzzle, the speed of a bullet, a 750-grain Hornady round"

Skills, good equipment and luck is always a good combination.
 
Propaganda same as American Sniper real life hero. Those around him say his kill count was way exaggerated. Was his 1mile kill also? Someone just had to go another mile LOL!
