Congrats. I got a 200 yarderwith my .308 a couple of weeks ago. What a great feeling it is to walk up there and see them laying there and know that you were able to make that acurate of a shot.

Very nice shot man congrats.When I got my first new rifle about a month ago and when at the target range I had one bullet left and at about 150yards there was a gopher and I got him with my winchester M-70 30-06 with a 2.5-8 power leupold scope I hit the head and blew it clean off tell you what for this being at the range for the first time wit hthis gun it was a very nice shot.
