      Meh, round could be a .308 or .300. With 6 seconds of flight time you’re looking at a shot well over 1’500 yards. If that’s the case, the arch on the bullet would be significantly higher.

      @@Mitchello457 ah, good eye.
      No, for calculating trajectories, bullet drop, spin drift, Coriolis effect, and time of flight, you can get an approximate calculation to see if the Coriolis effect is so small you can ignore it. The equations for the physics and the math which requires a little calculus can be done on a phone calculator. (Which is what I used)
      But at this distance, speed, and shape of the projectile; you need a computer simulation or a pre-programmed ballistic calculator like Harrison would have used to exactly factor in air resistance. Mainly, you are moving through a few supersonic speed regimes. Just from some off hand calculations, the initial velocity is over 2.5 times the speed of sound. And it is still supersonic even at that distance. But you could see an increase in time and deflections of 30%. But not an increase in time of 210%.

      yep, impressive feat at such a distance. The enemy MG team ambush his countrymen and he took out the main threat. He also broke the longest sniper kill record, although the British's sniper record was broken by a Canadian not to long after, Currently the longest sniper kill today is now Ukraine SF guy. However Craig Harrison was much more skillful during an high pressure situation with the enemy MG team in cover. compare to the one in Ukraine since Russia's forces act like cannon fodder in open field.

      A bullet begins to slow immediately after leaving the the barrel due to air resistance. A .338 Lapua rifle bullet fired at 3100 feet per second (Mach 2.75) will have slowed to just 2200 fps in the first 500 yards. By the time the bullet travelled 2700 yards, it would be moving only 825 feet per second, and the flight time would be 6.01 seconds.
