    Eeeehhh....precision shooting alright! At 4 kilometre distance it is more of a guess work than anything.

    According to this link, at 2000 yards it's dropping 200ft. At 4400 yards it wouldnt even be lethal any more.

    Hitting something at 4k is an acheivement, surprised some people dont recognize that. These arent "1 shot 1 kill" distances.

    I wonder what the POI shift is at that distance when the suppressor is removed.

    That is still an awesome achievement, regardless of how many shots it took to hit the target!

    The armchair "snipers" saying not much of an achievement is laughable. The longest recorded sniper kill is around 3500m this was 500 meters more, so what it took 16 tries? It's a testament to the rifle and the perseverance of the shooter. Congrats to him and to the quality of the system he used.

    even being able to see your misses wouldn't be easy.

    At 4400 yards a 400gr 375CT will still carry 850ft/lbs of energy. That is more than a 357 magnum handgun round at the muzzle. Still very lethal.
