Sadly I didn't have FRAPS available at the time, but perhaps a screenshot will suffice (end of the round screenshot)?
Alternatively, you can ask Mongol (spotter), whom promised to do several homoerotic gestures if I managed to bag the bugger prior to the shot. Needless to say, it was quite awkward when the dude dropped dead and fell from the castle parapets.
Now that I do have FRAPS, I'll try and get some video.
I can vouch for the success of this distance shot and I was considering posting it myself. I recall the range was something around
800m+ to a target that was elevated 25degrees positive, atop the highest point of the castle turret. The wait time till impact was pretty unreal and I'd thought the round had sorely missed. The target did not stop however. No, he plummeted 300-400m, tumbling most of the way until he came to a rest somewhere on the desert floor. We were unable to confirm if the target had been successfully neutralised, however I feel it safe to assume so.
That week was highly successful and the scoreboard ss shows the best of a superb bunch of rounds of sniping that week.
