Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2 features several weapon mastery camos that require you to score longshots, but the distances required for longshots vary from gun to gun. There are longshot challenges for snipers, assault rifles, SMGs, and marksman rifles at various points in the camo grind. Because all weapons do not possess the same range, they must be hit at a unique distance to count as a longshot kill.
The Platinum Camo can only be earned through a longshot kill from one of your weapons that exceeds a certain distance. This distance varies by weapon. Let’s see in this guide, how to get Longshot kills in MW2.

How to Get Longshot Kills in Modern Warfare 2?
MW2 has an extra feature that lets you know whether you’ve made a successful longshot kill or just a regular one when you make a shot. Regardless of the fact that it doesn’t meet all of the requirements for the challenge, if it is successful, it will appear an experience pop-up that says longshot followed by how far away the target was. In the case of a kill that qualifies as a longshot, the distance is displayed after the kill.
Each weapon class’ longshot distance requirements are listed below.
- Battle Rifles: 38m
- Light Machine Guns: 38m
- Marksman Rifles: 38m
- Pistols: 20m
- Shotguns: 12.5m
