The current longest recorded kill made with a rifle chambered in .308 was recorded as 1,250 meters, or just over 3/4 of a mile. It was made by then-Staff Sgt. James Gilliland of the 3rd Infantry Division in Ramadi, Iraq on September 27, 2005. Gilliland and his spotter were providing Overwatch for a line company that was going through a neighborhood, performing house-to-house searches for insurgents. The soldiers on the ground were taking fire from a hospital when Gilliland took the shot and hit the insurgent in the chest, killing him.
Chuck Norris. He smacked some jalapenos and tomate and shot it with his ak-47 and that's how salsa was made
One fine night in the middle of the day I got my track cleats on to play some basketball my back turned to the net I faced it to make the losing shot one of my fans shouted you cant do it my shot made it in and all my fans yelled boo! By: Alexis Auffhammer
yes katt has actually been shot even though he was not in the altercation.
On April 14, 1565, Abraham Lincoln was shot by John Wilkes Booth
He was shot in the head.
You will have to me more specific. Do you mean any rifle that fires a 30 caliber projectile or 30/06 or 308?
I'm not quite sure about the 3006, but I know that the longest recorded kill shot with a .308 was at about one and a half miles, possibly more.
1.2 miles per the us marine handbook.
@ 2000 and 2400 M
Accurate and effective to about 175-200 yards.
No specific records. The 7mm Magnum is not a military round, nor is it specifically used in long range competition.
L115A3, otherwise known as the Accuracy International Arctic Warfare. It fires the 8.58x70 cartridge (also known as .338 Lapua Magnum), and the shots made actually exceeded the projected range of the rifle.

Your question is a bit ambiguous, so I'll go with the notion you're referring to the longest confirmed kill by a sniper. That was achieved with a rifle chambered in .338 Lapua Magnum.
I read awhile back that a US military sniper hit an enemy about 2 miles or so away...
1000 yards or so.
the longest recorded kill was 1149 yards,but that may have been eclipsed this year in afgan.I just do not know what caliber ws used.
