Yes, a canadian sniper killed an enemy at 2650 yards, BUT it took multiple shots before he connected
An American in Afghanistan, SFC Nick Ransatad made a 2300 yard shot where the very first round successfully hit the enemy, giving the true sniper's 'one shot one kill' result.
This Scott made a 1650 or so yard shot. The only way I can see this line

25-year-old Scottish Corporal Christopher Reynolds set a new record for longest kill in the war in Afghanistan
being true if it really means 'set a new record FOR SCOTTLAND for longest kill.
