1600 metres,very believable since there are confirmed kills at over 2000metres
Fazman,
Yes .... it has happened.
But still .... even a one kilometer shot is amazing. I live in front of the Saint Lawrence River and the distance from my home to across the river is 700 meters. 2,000 meters .... all that I can say is wow.
I agree, 1968 2400 mt, old gun ,old ammo unbelievable but true
