Default RE: YOUR LONGEST 1 SHOT KILL

Whitetail doe at 467 paces with a 7mm Mag. I was using a mail box as a rest across a cut corn field. I hit it on the second shot. I had guessed it at about 450 yards and had been shooting the ram at a local gun club pretty consistantly all summer. Perfect hit, dropped in her tracks. My second longest shot was 326 paces on a snowshoe rabbit. It was with a Encore 223 with 6-20x44 scope and a 52gr HP. First shot hit it on the top of th head just at the base of the ears. I didn' t tell my buddies but I had been aiming for a shoulder hit on it. I have done a lot of really long range target practice but these are my two farthest shots on game.
