There are many great long range caliber with a varying degree of recoil. 6.5x55 also known as 6.5 Swede or 6.5 Swedish mauser is often regarded as one the best examples.

Agree with above. Another is the 7mm-08, and the .243. There are several 6mm cartridges developed especially for laong range target shooting.
There are a lot of calibers that are able to shoot long distances the best rifle in the 30 caliber family are any of the 300's from the weatherby to the winchest er will do a great job on those long range shots
25-06
Compared to the 223 Remington, the case volume of the 308 Winchester is increased by approximately 80%. The 308 Win now fires a larger bullet and maintains long-range speed, but at the expense of recoil.
This would be one of those questions with a thousand answers, because it has to do with many things. Do you want to hunt, target shoot, do you want heavy recoil, or a light nudge, do you want to reload, or buy factory ammunition. There are many rifles that are the best long range rifle for many different people. There's also the budget issue. The Varmint Hunter Association would have you in a heavy barrelled, 22-250 or something similar. The longest range kill of a person in combat was done with a $10,000 .50 caliber rifle made by the McMillan Brothers. Two very different rifles but well-suited for the task at hand.
There is no one single best caliber, but to get an answer, you need to be a little more specific. Rifle or handgun? Define long distance. 50 yards? 100 yards? 1000 yards?
It depends on your playing style and personal preference, but the best SMG is generally considered to be the UMP45, due to its high damage while silenced and long range for an SMG. The most commonly praised assault rifle is the ACR, which has incredibly low recoil for a full automatic. The most used machine pistol is the G18, very often used akimbo due to its high damage output with relatively low recoil. The best shotgun for sheer accuracy and firepower is the SPAS-12, plus its notably high range compared to other shotguns since it was patched. The best LMG for balance of clip size, damage, and recoil, would be the RPD. In handguns, the Magnum has high damage with low recoil, making it an excellent choice. The best sniper rifle would either be the Barrett or the Intervention, depending on the accuracy of your initial shot.
For people who don't have skills with TAR21, M12S is better. It has low recoil but not that good aiming. TAR21 is better for long range.
I believe it means it is a 10 round .22 caliber long range rifle.
If you mean how long is the cartridge for an AK47, it's 39 millimeters long. The caliber 7.62x39mm.
Yes, the.22 caliber rifle is perhaps the most common firearm in the US. The .22 cartridge is also used in handguns. Search Wilipedia for .22 Long rifle, and it will have information on the cartridge used by rifles and handguns. I have about 30 different .22 caliber rifles in my collection- they are accurate, inexpensive, ammuntion is not expensive, they have very little recoil, and my grandkids like to shoot them.
The 950 JDJ is not intended as an ultra-long range cartridge. There is no sniper rifle in that caliber.
Of course not. For that matter, caliber should only be a consideration as is suitable for the particular person and purpose, never as a question of whether someting is prohibited or permitted. Most 9mm handguns have a sharp recoil whereas calibers with heaver projectiles may be more comfortable for some to operate who are sensitive to sharp recoil. As long as the caliber is sufficient to penetrate deeply enough to create damage sufficient to stop a threat, it is suitable for use by police or civilians for personal defense.
