whats the longest shot youve ever took at at a target?

80 yards is my longest shot I could hit the target but not the bull(i could barely see it). any amazing long range shots youve witnessed?

I can already tell you're going to have a lot of worthwhile information to contribute.

My longest shot is 70 yards, I practice at that range regularly to make the shorter shots seem like cake.

I've shot at 80 a few times just to see if I could hit it. I will normally practice out to 60 though. (i use my level to target at 60 yards)

I routinely practice @ 60 yards, but it's not uncommon for fun to shoot out to 89.

I shot a groundhog target at a shoot that was 100 yards. I have a 90 yd. line on my sight, so I held high. We got three shots and I hit it with the second one.

At the 3D course I shoot at they have an elk out at around 90 yards in front of a big berm, pretty fun to shoot at.
