I shot 2 does this year,1 at 280 actual yards,the other at only 50 yards but was running full blast. Both were bang flops. The farthest I've ever shhot a deer was 647 actual yards with a browning a-bolt rum I built. IHe was already wounded by another hunter and RUNNING ACCROSS MY800 YARD RIFLE RANGE,I didn't feel any of these shots particularly difficult as my a-bolt will group around 2.5" for 5 shot group at 800 yards but I never shoot at deer over 500 yards unless it's already wounded by another shooter. Hats off to ridge runner for the denication it takes to shoot that range.
