New record for the longest shot made by a military sniper in combat

It seems some of our boys have set new records for taking an enemy target out at a distance of 2,310 meters and 2,400 meters. My cousin who is serving over in Afganistan on a recon plane mentioned something about this to his father a while back but I guess the stories just coming out about it.
Here's a link to the first part of the story with the next part with the confirmed kills coming out next month. Oh btw, they were using American issued bullets for the kills. Ain't them .50 cal rifles something else.
