OK guy's, I have a question regarding the possibility of the shot at this distance.
I am not familiar with these type of rifles or the optic's being used; but I've been thinking about the physics of the shot and the point of aim.

Would you actually be able to see the target in the scope at that distance because of the amount of amount of elevation you would have to add on for the point of aim?
I ask this because in Sgt Harrison's account of his 2,4 kilometre shot; he mentions that he was aiming off so far that the target was barely visible in the bottom right of the scope. I was wondering if with another kilometre added to that if you may put the target out of the scope image to get a hit!
Tell me if this is a stupid question!
