That would be neat but do you have more evidence than just the OP image you posted?

I had imagined a other way of 'sniping' to be honest

then again if it works it works

congratulations

>you literally see nothing
>just a baseless claim

Thank you, Ukrainian Ministry of Truth.

>>64128233
at this point this is just an artillery barrage

>>64128252
Snipers are just miniature artillerymen.
With technological advancements, soon we will get rid of stocks and handguards.

Was it that giganigga 12.7 wildcat smushed into a 14.5 case?

>>64128249
>Thank you, Ukrainian Ministry of Truth.
>t.

>>64128345
Could be, but is hard to tell

Wasn't there an anon which calculated that, at distances like 3+ km, actually hitting something with a bullet is mostly luck?

>>64128233
I'm gonna be honest, I really can't even tell if that's a person they're shooting at

>>64128451
just look at the video. half of the runtime it's zoomed on the tall building and then for like a split second you see a puff of smoke somewhere in bumfucknowhere totally the same building the camera was pointed at claiming the guy even hit something when the best you can see is like 2x2 pixels

They need an astronomical telescope for observations.

>>64128196 (OP)
At this point its more like man portable indirect artillery

>try to hit the tower from 4 km away
>bullet drop and strong wide wind blows it all the way to some building on the right, hitting a factory window
>okay now what.jpg
>let's just tell the press we killed six Russians and one BMP on the first floor with one shot

>>64128233
>Drones allow you to take advantage of extreme bullet arching
We Worms Armageddon now

this convinced me that ukraine is actually strong and winning etc etc

Reminds me of some Russian videos from the Syrian civil war where the drone camera would be focused on a building or vehicle, and then there’d be a big explosion off to the side and the camera would quickly pan over to the blast.

Only one million more mulched vatniks zizter, and mighty puccia might get land they de facto controlled since 2014!

Not a Zigger shill by any means but I call bullshit.

>>64128545
Help, an armed man invaded my house three years ago, I still haven't been able to kick him out despite having castle doctrine and stand-your-ground laws in my state, in other words I have a legal right to kill him, and I have plenty of guns and ammo, but he's just been hanging out in the living room for three years and I can't go in there.

What do I do? 4chan's weapons subreddit tells me I'm actually winning here, but I'm not so sure.

Yeah the 3800m shot (vid related) was way clearer. And the guy's not even holding the rifle or looking through the scope. Definitely not the new record IMO

>>64128196 (OP)
done spotters for snipers are awesome a whole new level up

>>64128592
the man wants to come take the rest of my house? that's strange, if that's true he surely would've done something by now. But he seems perfectly happy in my living room. I already can't get him out of my living room, how is this supposed to help me? Please help, it's been three years and I want my entire house back.

>>64128603
please help. I need advice on getting my living room back. It's been years. I don't think these images will help. Do you have any tactics or strategy for getting my living room back? It's 20% of the square footage of my house. Please help.

>>64128600
I don't know what you guys get from showing the whole world you have the reasoning and debating skills of a 10 year old.

>>64128345
yes it was

>>64128569
>Help, a horde of stinky niggers invaded my house three years ago
Fixed that for ya, faggot

>>64128613
>muh gains
however you look at it, you lose :^)

>>64128457
>I really can't even tell if that's a person they're shooting at
After getting hit by that round, everyone will have hard time telling.

>>64128571
>And the guy's not even holding the rifle or looking through the scope
You do realize there is another guy holding the rifle, right?

>>64128647
i did not realize this

>spend all day taking pot shots miles away just to keep heads down
>eventually get a hit
>GOAAAAAAAAAAAAAAL

Calculated drop on a .338 lapua magnum is 30 mils at 2000y, so they were probably at least 60 mils above the target, in other words aiming off into empty space 240 yards above the target. With windage they were probably aiming 20-30mils left or right, again into empty space.

Not to mention the projectile has already shaved off 85% of its energy at 2000y to a paltry 690ftlb, I can't even imagine how puny it is at 4000.

You could probably fire off pot shots for an entire day and never actually come within 2 yards of the target. I find it far more likely they were just firing off blindly and some guy on the ground or significantly ahead of them took the kill shot

Canadian here, why would I seethe over a record set in a war we never should have showed up for in the first place? What's important is two more pieces of Russian filth have been removed from the face of the Earth so if anything I'd like to buy those guys a beer and some more ammo.

>>64128717
They're shooting 12.7×114mmHL. Way more velocity and muzzle energy than .338

>>64128236
>>64128252
>>64128479
And everyone made fun of the Americans for having volley fire sights and training it into the 1970s xD
Just need a troop massing in the open.
>>64128717
They need one of the 22lr 60mil shims and some way to 3d print gauges and reloading kit.
Subdivide lots like 22lr b

>>64128466
>then for like a split second you see a puff of smoke somewhere in bumfucknowhere totally the same building the camera was pointed at
It could simply be a lucky hit, out of the several taken that day, like >>64128691 said. Their previous hit >>64128571 landed on some randomfag standing 3 feet away from the people they were aiming at.

>>64128252
>artillery barrage
breddy much, where do you find the ballistics charts for that shit kek

>>64128740
What's the moa rating of the ammo and rifles?
Based on the plinking it's gotta be small but not .2 MOA small.

>>64128691
That's how extreme range snipping records are done, yes

>>64128805
The 3800 record >>64128571 is a bit different, it's a squad size element or larger (there are guys behind the 2 clearly visible) and he basically just shot in the middle of the group hoping to hit one

Meh. I dont believe it. I myself cant hit shit 10 feet away from me.

>>64128717
Is there any evidence there was a kill at all? All I saw was a flash in a window, and last I checked humans don't tend to emit bright light when shot.

>>64128981
Might've hit some sort of equipment, causing its battery to burst.

>>64128345
Snipex Alligator, one of those huge 14.5mm things that weigh about 50lb

>>64129062
Or MCR Horizon's Lord
>By necking down the cartridge 14.5×114mm to accept .50 BMG, 12.7×114mmHL was created, with a muzzle velocity of 3,280 feet per second (1,000 m/s).

The Ukrainians broke the record two years ago, anon. Canada hasn't been top since then. Regardless, many nations, such as the UK, classify their sniper shots if they're done by SAS/E Squadron. Canada didn't. Also 90% of long range sniper shots are done by .50BMG or higher. Ukraine is the only nation running 12.7×114 mm HL. The 5th longest in the world was achieved with .338 Lapua Magnum (LockBase B408) and was impressive because the guy hit three targets at that range (two gunners and their PKM).

But as I said Viacheslav Kovalskyi has the longest range kill with MCR Horizon's Lord, which as I said, fires 12.7×114 mm HL

>>64128571
>Definitely not the new record IMO
We've been spoiled by the amount of quality combat footage we get lately. If a longest sniper shot requires public HD video proof of the target's head exploding then we should go through the Wikipedia list of longest sniper shots and scrub 95% of them.
Most events like this in history are believed besides people there said it happened and their military awarded a medal and it was written down in a report.
This shit quality video is more than we would have expected to get from a reported sniper kill before we started binge watching 1080p drone videos. But even with a relatively good video you can sit here asking >>64128571 how do we know this was filmed 3800m and not half that and slowed down, or the entire thing could be a LARP with some guys told to fall down, there's not enough for a geolocation or anything.
I'd honestly have more confidence having an opinion based on the translation of a Telegram post where they tell the story, or 'behind the scenes' footage of them setting up and comments from other Ukrainian operators who worked with the sniper, than I would from contextless grainy kilometers away footage of a shot.

I wonder what they mean when they say the shot was "guided by AI."

>>64128196 (OP)
WHAT RIFLE?
Was it T-rex?
Please tell me it was T-rex!

>>64129534
Probably calculation and shit.
Hell i wouldnt be suprised if they have scope that uses AI to literally point you where you need to aim to hit the shot.

Well maybe leafs are not seething, but pidors are, basically confirming the kill.

>>64129537
According to the sources it was the bigger Snipex Alligator

>>64129578
>Snipex Alligator
>Made by Hado
>The company manufactures over 1,600 products, primarily for car maintenance, which can be purchased in more than 100 countries all over the world (as of March 2023).[4] The best-known Xado products include revitalizants, atomic oils, and VeryLube car care products. The specialists assess Xado as the major player in the Ukrainian market of imported and domestic antifriction materials as well, actively occupying almost all major regions of the post-Soviet countries. The company's share of the market is 24%, whereas in the segment of nanoceramics it is up to 90%.[5]

How do this companies go from making lube to FUCKING CANNON

At that distance, even with
