It is the British-made L115A3 Long Range Rifle which, in recent weeks, has killed scores of enemy fighters in Afghanistan.
In a new initiative on the front line, the Army is using sniper platoons to target the Taliban and 'The Long', as the snipers call it, can take out insurgents from a mile away.

Personally I'd prefer the 0.5 Light Barrett.
2,000 to 2,500 metres easy, and a bullet the size of a mobile phone.
There are some nice clips on Youtube.

Good stuff, I like the A10 tankbuster as well.
