I won't
mention the
range 
After sleeping on this last night and thinking about your write-up which did provide some clues like....
She saw me and ran off. I ranged it at over 200 yards.
So to me... if she ran off and you ranges her a 200 yards as you come over the hill - she must have open the distance even further - surely she didn't run at you...
Then...
When I tried to move closer she actually ran farther away but stopped at the next hill. I ranged it and it was a little further than I intended to ever try
Two more clues here... she actually moved
further away and thinking about the country you have shown pictures of she may have extened the range well beyond the initial 200 yard range...
Not only that she crossed a depression and went to the next rolling hill and stopped. With the extended range and depression she crossed the air between you and the animal will change properties across that depression - an external influence that will effect the flight of the bullet at extended ranges causing a possible change of POI...
Next...
the only problem was even though my shot put her straight down it was a little low and forward and messed up the front quarters
Assuming that you were aiming in the normal area of a good clean harvest - then assuming as much shooting as you have done in your lifle time - you did not pull the shot with you trigger pull.... I would think the range and the atmospheric conditions (winds-breezes and change of both across a derpession) was substantial enough to cause a drop of elevation of the bullet plus the movement of the bullet left...
Now knowing the bullet as I do and looking at the physical make of the bullet with the large open nose and then applying the next part of your description to the shot...
I didn't find an exit wound but the leg on the opposite side was broke and when I went to gut her the blood was everywhere, so both front quarters were not much good.
You are telling us this bullet traveled through one sholuder across the the body and into the other causing it to break also.... So all the remaining energy when the bullet hit the target was expended in the animal.
With the charge you have listed and the estimated velocity of the bullet with that charge and then using your descriptions -
I have come to a non-scientific conclusion of the estimated range... In all the excitement did you range the harvest site????
How is all of this for crude NCSI work????
Just proves you 'can run but sometimes you can not hide' especially if you stop on the next contour roll....
