Reminds me of a daylight sniper duel I had a front row seat to.

During the early days in Iraq (2003), we were static in Al Kut along the Tigris River. A "sniper" with an AK47 began taking shots at us from across the river. He was somewhere between 500-600 yards away. His fire was inneffective but annoying, a hit could have been fatal of course, but it would have been a lot of luck.

Anyway, there was an SOF team on the rooftop next door to us, and they had a Barrett 50 BMG. They took out the Iraqi with one shot, in dramatic fashion.
