[QUOTE="theosmithjr, post: 1347176, member: 102164"] 330 yards is not really what I'd call a LONG SHOT, especially on a DEER! Now if you were talking a Field Mouse or a Hamster then I might tend to agree with your thinking. You stated that you OWN the property, and that you feel confident in ONE of your PRECISION Rifles, and that you've made SHOTS LONGER that THAT in the PAST! Whats the QUESTION then? I really don't understand your pondering shooting this deer. If your the Owner of the Property and you have made shots at this distance and longer; any rifle is capable of killing at 330 yards so the only QUESTION I ask is are you capable of making the shot? If you're a competent shooter dropping a deer at 330 yards is an easy shot in my opinion. TAKE IT and CALL ME when the LOINS are ON THE GRILL! Attached is a photo of what I consider a some what LONG SHOT. I took this Pennsylvania Groundhog 2 1/2 weeks ago at 873 yards with my .308 Sendero. 168 gr. HPBT MatchKing. I've taken a Pennsylvania Groundhog at 1,553 yards with my 6-284 Custom Built. 107 gr. HPBT MatchKing. This HOG was standing up on her mound and I'm a HEADHUNTER, look where the bullet impacted at 873 yards! That's CONFIDENCE![ATTACH=full]81597[/ATTACH] [/QUOTE]
