Am I supposed to write something funny here?

Now, after reading that article, i assume that there's a covenant weapon that has REALLY long range.Well we actually figured out that the range of 4,200 feet was just the longest ever recorded range from a Human. So it can fire farther.Actually, according to wikipedia the longest recorded sniper kill is 2475 m (8120 ft). The page also says this about L115A3 sniper rifle (the rifle used in the kill):It is still fairly accurate beyond 1,500 m (1,640 yd), but at that distance luck plays as much of a part as anything.
On-topic:
Doesn't Halsey's diary say that while some covenant infantry weapons are superior to human weapons, some are actually inferior to them? According to text above, that rifle is accurate to 1500 m. So I think it's possible for beam rifle to have maximum effective range of about 1500 m. Also should be remembered that a fair amount of covie tech is used for different purposes than the FR stuff they are copied from.
