I informed them, you\u2019re going to get hit in a minute.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Looking through his spotting scope, he saw another Taliban fighter even farther away holding a radio, informing the other fighters about the incoming patrol. The fighter was too far away for his range-finding binoculars to calculate the distance, so started \u201cbracketing.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Using this technique, Harrison fired nine consecutive shots, walking his way up to where the fighter was standing. When he hit the compound wall, the radio-wielding Taliban fighter took cover, and the fighters on the ground weren\u2019t able to receive any additional information.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The engagement continued for several hours until he realized there was another fighter in the compound, and they were both firing at the men under his command.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">SEE ALSO: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.gunsamerica.com\/digest\/russian-firm-developing-sniper-rifle-for-use-beyond-four-miles\/\" target=\"_blank\" class=\"clickTracking\" campaign=\"sniper-who-broke-world-record-reveals-exactly-how-he-landed-multiple-1-5-mile-shots\" title=\"Sniper Who Broke World Record Reveals Exactly How He Landed Multiple 1.5-Mile Shots\">Russian Firm Developing Sniper Rifle for Use Beyond Four Miles<\/a><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cI knew that I had shot there in the morning\u2026 so I fired my first shot, and it missed\u2026 just in front,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>One of the fighters stood up, so he fired again, and the bullet took six seconds to reach him. That fighter went down, hit in the chest.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Now that Harrison was dialed in, he fired a third shot at the second fighter. While that bullet was in the air, he moved his point of aim and fired again.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cNow I\u2019ve got two bullets in the air at the same time,\u201d Harrison explained. \u201cThird one missed, fourth one hit him in the side.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>He made all these shots leaning against a wall using an <a href=\"https:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Accuracy_International_AWM\" target=\"_blank\" class=\"clickTracking\" campaign=\"sniper-who-broke-world-record-reveals-exactly-how-he-landed-multiple-1-5-mile-shots\" title=\"Sniper Who Broke World Record Reveals Exactly How He Landed Multiple 1.5-Mile Shots\">Accuracy International AWM<\/a> chambered in .338 Lapua Magnum.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Harrison\u2019s record has been broken twice since he made those two kills in 2009.
