The effective range of a sniper can vary greatly depending on the type of rifle and ammunition used, as well as the skill of the shooter. Modern sniper rifles, such as the Barrett .50 caliber, can accurately engage targets at distances exceeding 1,500 meters (about 1 mile). However, most military snipers typically operate within a range of 800 to 1,200 meters for optimal accuracy and effectiveness. Factors like environmental conditions and target movement also influence how far a sniper can effectively engage a target.
