During the next four days of fighting, the Newfoundland corporal set what is believed to be a record for a long-distance shot under combat conditions, hitting an enemy gunman at a distance of 2,430 metres.

Wow. No comment, just...wow. Just over a mile and a half, while under fire.

A Good eye and a decent .50 caliber round, and you can take out targets almost five miles away with relative ease....

You mean at a mile and a half someone was firing back at him?
