Default 715 yard Antelope shot!

Watched the Sportsman channel on Direct TV - Show called Long Range Pursuit -
Watched them make a 715 Yard shot with a muzzleloader. They did not mention what caliber or the load but did mention the 209 primer.

Anyone else catch that show and caught more info?

Yep, $7,000 plus shipping. At that price, they could at least give you free shipping!!

A helluva gun but waaay too rich for my blood. Kind of reminds me of a Badbull or Ultimate muzzleloader.

For anybody that hasn't seen it, check this out:

I just don't see the need to have a Muzzleloader the can shoot that far as I can't see that far. Besides, the gun going off will scare my seeing eye dog.
