The max "effective" range of the M2 HB MG was considered to be 2000 m when I was a tanker. The cal .50 MG is a really powerful round, [censored] near artillery. I could not imagine hitting anything that far off with a Sharps. Sounds like Quigley Down Under. But I guess I am wrong. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/doh.gif" alt="" />

The current record for the longest-range confirmed sniper kill is 2,430 meters (7,972 feet or 1.51 miles), accomplished by Canadian sniper, Corporal Rob Furlong, of the third battalion Princess Patricia’s Canadian Light Infantry (3 PPCLI), during the invasion of Afghanistan, using a .50 cal. BMG (12.7 mm) McMillan bolt-action rifle. The bullet's time of flight was around four seconds, and it dropped some 150 feet. The previous record-holder was U.S. Marine sniper Carlos Hathcock, who achieved it during the Vietnam War, with a kill at 2,250 meters: he had a career total of 93 confirmed kills.
