Which of the following snipers has the highest amount of confirmed kills?

The story behind the answer

Simo Häyhä is correct. The Finnish sniper, nicknamed “The White Death,” holds the highest recorded number of confirmed sniper kills—about 505—achieved in just the 105-day Winter War (1939–1940) against the Soviet Union. By comparison, Chris Kyle had 160 confirmed kills, Vasily Zaytsev around 225, and Craig Harrison is noted for a record-long shot, not total kills.

Häyhä’s success came from icy discipline and smart tactics: he wore white camouflage, used iron sights to avoid scope glare and fogging, packed snow to steady his rifle and mute muzzle blast, and operated in extreme cold. To remember: Winter War → white snow → “White Death” → the top tally.
