Longest Handgun Kill

[yotefever]

Hunlee,
If you have a Weaver style base I would recommend the Burris Signature Z Rings. With their plastic inserts you can adj your scope for longer shooting and it won't mark up the scope. They are a little taller rings but that may help you cocking the hammer under the scope, without the aid of a hammer extension.

Burris Zee Rings

hunlee,

Try these folks, I just got a set of the zee rings with the adjustable inserts. They fit nicely on my weaver rail. Talk to them and tell them what you are trying to mount it on and they can help you out. Good bunch to deal with.

Here in this part of the state, we can only hunt with straight walled calibers.
I shot this WT doe with my S&W 629 Classic 44 Mag and a 250 gr PT at 60 yds. Scope is a Leupold M8 2x.

[JD338]

Never weighed her, just an average old doe that was hanging around in the back 40. There are some nice buck around too.

The revolver is a S&W 629 Classic, 44 Rem Mag. It holds 6 rounds, which are my handloads with a Nosler 250 gr Partition bullet.

325lbs.Black Bear 80 yards Super Redhawk .454 Cassull with a red dot. Called him in with a dying rabbit mouth call. He now stands in my living room. Once I figure out how to download pictures I'll post. I'm a computer idiot.

 

[Len Backus]

Did you try to call in a black bear or were you as surprised as he was?

 

[Rupe]

I was calling him in. Him and a female came in at the same time. He was hoping to do a little dating, but I sort of ruined that for him. If you have never done it before, it takes alot of calling before you get one in. You have to call for about an hour almost steady. Then move a couple of miles and set up again. It's not like calling Coyotes that's for sure. Plus you have to get them in close enough for a revolver shot. It is alot of fun.

Mine is pretty modest compared with some of the preceding stories. However, I was walking with three other guys who had .22 rifles, at least two of which were scoped. I had a Ruger Mk II .22 pistol, 10" bull barrel, with 2X Leupold scope. We spotted a couple burrowing ground squirrels at about 103 yds. None of the riflemen thought it was worth a shot.

I went down on one knee and braced my elbow on it. Missed the first shot by a couple inches. One squirrel ran through the grass a few feet then stuck his head up just above grass level. Hit him in the head with the second shot.

Didn't tell the rifle guys I had over 15,000 rds through that Ruger, mostly at 50-100 yds. They were pretty surprised by my hit.

DWK,
