I don't want to get involved in this one, but if you truly don't understand why people are doubting...
Most folks would agree that hitting a deer at this range with a varmit rifle is fairly easy to do, but the choice of a varmit bullet is raising some eyebrows. There have been several wild claims (not saying your story is) recently and it probably makes some guys skeptical. A few young boys have entertained us lately with tales of heroic long distance shots and all around firearms expertise.
My take on your story is that I believe it, but think the use of a varmit bullet on big game is questionable at best.
