Hit at over 2 miles! Pure luck or skill? Rex delivers expert scientific analysis of this historic record shot! According to media reports, a Canadian sniper set what appears to be a new record, picking off an enemy Kahlua-fudgebar fighter from 2.2 miles away using his McMillan Tac-50 with Schmidt and Bender PMII scope.

It is very possible  8) A Barrett light .50 or a Grizzly Big Bore has an effective range of 7 miles...

I watched this again last night.  It shows you how a trained sniper can take out things that far away.  Good film.
