        That's a cannon! Nice!

          1008 yds. on a crow on a fence post, at Wheeler, Tx with 3 witnesses. 816 yds on a doe, at my place, my buddy had just shot at her with a 308 7 times and never spooked her. Both were with two different Savage Custom long action 224 Texas Trophy Hunter, 75 gr Amax's and a 6x20 Leupold.

            728 yards on a very unlucky hog who made a really bad decision and wandered into our range in the middle of me practicing. My Remington 700 in 270 delivered a 130 grain Hornady directly to his heart. His two buddies made bad decisions and ran directly towards the base of the cliff we shoot off of. One died to a 7 mm at the 400 yard gong and the other one made it to 150 before the 6.5 creedmore my buddy shoots added a large hole to his head. Craziest day at the range I have ever had.

              Two at 550 yards, 1st was an 8 pt in Del Rio with Remington model 700 in 270 win shooting 130 gr remington bronze points, 2nd was a bull elk in Colorado with remington 700 in 7mm rem mag using Federal premium ammo and 140 gr trophy bonded bear claws. Elk dropped in its tracks and the deer ran maybe 100 yards.

                I have no idea, I have had some really funny misses out past 600 at the ranch. Silly doe let me shoot at her 4 times before she walked off into the brush.

                  That makes slightly more than 500 yards
                  X2 for 500 meters

                    Cow Elk at 305 yards. Remington stainless fluted Sendero 7 mm rem mag. 160 gr Nosler Accubond dead in her shoulder. Went 22 feet and fell dead. I'm comfortable out to 350-400, but that's as far as I'm willing to shoot at game animals.

                        Misses at 600 yards are funny?
                        Targets, sure. Game animals, though? Why pull the trigger?

                              LOL, actually longest game shot was this one from Dalhart in 2011, 524yds with a similar .284 to the one above.....the shoulder mount is next to the rifle in that pic.

                                HF ranch, we were killing off the natives. Sorry to hurt your feelings. Kicked dirt under her all four times. I only took two of the shots. I wouldn't take a shot I wasn't sure of under normal circumstances.


                                off the porch, nuttin' but dirt.
