A Ukrainian Security Service sniper reportedly set a new world record by eliminating a Russian serviceman from a distance of 3.8 km, surpassing the previous record of 3.54 km. The sniper used the Horizon’s Lord rifle, made in Ukraine with international collaboration.
  

Key Points: 

  1. The record-breaking sniper shot was confirmed by Yuriy Chornomorets, a Ukrainian volunteer involved in supplying sniper rifles to the frontline.
  2. This 3.8 km shot is not the first at this range in the Russo-Ukrainian war; a previous shot at the same distance only wounded the enemy.
  3. The Ukrainian sniper utilized the Horizon’s Lord sniper rifle, produced by a Ukrainian company in cooperation with Bartlein Barrels Inc. (USA) and ARC Ballistics (UK).
  4. The Horizon’s Lord rifle is versatile, accommodating various bullet types and boasting an effective range of 2,500 meters, with a potential for greater range.
  5. This event marks a significant achievement in military sniping and showcases the advanced capabilities of Ukrainian weaponry.
