And he\u2019s ripe for the picking.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Hitting him requires some extra effort. I took the M.1903, loaded it up for maximum velocity, and also grabbed match ammo. You can find some match ammo at the top of the tower where you complete the kill list objective for this map if you didn\u2019t equip some beforehand.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>While you could also take the shot from that tower, it\u2019s actually not as far away as the point I\u2019m at here in this video, so if you want to add a bit more to your shot, follow my lead.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>You\u2019ll max out your elevation adjustments to 1500 meters, but you\u2019ll still be aiming quite a bit higher just to hit your target.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>You may think that you can just drop the difficulty down to Sniper Elite, get the aim point, and switch it back, but you can\u2019t: The aim point seems to actually be significantly different between the two!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Save, and start firing off your rounds trying to hit the target. Take your time with each shot, and if you reload a save, toggle your elevation up and down again before you take a shot: As of publishing there is a bug that causes it not be accurate.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Anyway, if you take your time, watch your bullet impacts, and be patient, you\u2019ll eventually nail the same beautiful shot I did.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Additional Update: While there are further locations on the map that theoretically have the tower in-view, the tower and enemy won&#8217;t render at those distances, so 1,937 or 1,938 is probably going to be the best you can do at this point.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Good like Ghosts, and happy sniping!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>I did it. 1,860 meters (Update: Personal best is now 1,936 meters; I&#8217;ve updated the guide here with instructions for that specific shot, and another person has gotten 1,937 meters).
