The farther a bullet has to travel, the less power it will have. The less power it has, the less likely it will penetrate objects.

More than likely, the 12.7mm Armor-Piercing, Discarding Sabot (APDS) fails to penetrate the military towers after 1km or so because of distance and lost velocity/power. Those towers are extremely difficult to penetrate with man-portable ammo, so if you want to snipe from a km or more away, better use an IFV like the Marshall. 20mm rounds and bigger have no issues going through military towers at that range.
