Far shot!
I drew a youth deer tag here in Oregon and so my dad and I were walking down this loggin road and we looked across the canyon and we saw 2 deer running up the hill. We watched them and noticed one of them was a forked horn, so I layed my back pack on the ground and rested my rifle on it to get steadier. Then I steadied the cross hairs about a foot over its back cause it was 365 yards away and shot! But went over its back. then the thing came down the hill a little so I got another shell in the chamber. Then it stopped 336 yards away facing me so I steadied the cross hairs about 5 inches higher than I wanted to hit. BANG! it took the bullet about 3 quarters of a second to get to it and I nailed it! It dropped in its tracks.

RE: Far shot!
That's some fancy shootin there! Nice buck. Sounds like hard work getting him out of there. What caliber were you shooting to poke a hole in him?
|
RE: Far shot!
Thanks! Yeah it was about a 2 and a half mile hike out with him! 30-06 did the job! 3 deer were shot with it and my reloaded bullets and the farthest one ran was 18 yards with a double lung and heart, The other one was with my gun, but I didn't shoot it and that one dropped in its tracks! and then this one dropped in its tracks to!
The one that ran 18 yards was a 225 pound white-tail, theothers were blacktails. |
