[QUOTE="Terry1, post: 815912, member: 64674"] Don't know how far. Years ago, on the last day of Idaho elk season a 5X5 was standing broadside on the opposite side of a deep canyon from me. After considerable debate with a hunting partner and myself as to exactly how distant from us said elk might be I settled my Remington 700 7mm rem. mag. on a sturdy rest and peered through my 4X Lyman until I elevated enough I could no longer see the back of the elk in the bottom of the scope. With some experience tagging several whitetail bucks out to 500 yds. I gently squeezed the trigger and watched as the bull took several steps and tumbled end over end down the hill, coming to rest in some brush. Needless to say it was a chore finding him and the pack back back out is unforgettable. The bullet entered the top of the heart on the near side and exited on the far side of the bottom of the heart, definitely a downward trajectory. [/QUOTE]
