Longest Kill Shot ?

[sika64]

451 yards with a stock model 70 black shadow in 270wsm with 130gr Winchester ballistic tips from a tree stand on a 6 point Sika deer. Sika are about half the size of Whitetails for the ones that don't know. Also have 2 others over 400 on Sika with the same gun.

I shot a woodchuck at 600 with a Sako .264 Mag. It was one
out of many misses at longish ranges.

I think I replied to this when it was first made, but I shot a mule deer doe at 720yds. In the past two years the closest I shot a deer was 501yds

Not an animal but longest was 1360. Animal was a 4x4 Muley buck at 464 or something like that.

My best shot ever however I think was this morning. I painted a "moose eye" on a steel plate at 506 (hard to find a place to shoot further than that where I'm at right now) and was joking with my uncle yesterday about shooting one in the eye with 1 shot. Wind was 2-3mph R->L and I hit the left edge of the "eye". Went back out this morning before work and no one had shot at that plate since I did yesterday, and this time it was dead calm so I tried it again...modified prone, 1 cold bore shot, pretty much center punched it. Didn't measure the "eye" but you can see my two bullet impacts from the 6.5 Creed. It's the culmination of a few things but that rifle is just shooting awesome right now.

200 yds coyote .223

Steel plate 700 yds, 6.5 Creedmoor. Would love to harvest a deer with it but we are restricted to straight wall ammo in Iowa for deer season.

70 yds Whitetail 350 legend. Have it dialed in to a nice group at 200 yds with 180gr soft points but didn't have to take a long shot this year.

Those are huge cutters. Wow! I've rarely seen them past the upper lip.

They can only get that long if the upper tusks they are supposed to articulate against get broken off. Pretty darn rare.

Impressive work.

If you haven't had a lot of misses you haven't tried a lot. It's the misses that teach us how to hit.

The day I quit missing is the day I quit shooting lol

Reminds me of a BS'r on another forum who after making a long list of ridiculous accomplishments that Roy Rodgers, Wyatt Earp, Doc Holiday, Buffalo Bill, Annie Oakley, Rob Latham, and Jerry Miculek combined couldn't math claimed he's never missed a shot with a pistol... .

I pointed out he might be able to peddle that BS in a room full of people who'd never shot a handgun but all he'd done is just show all of us he hadn't ever touched one.

If you've never missed you've never shot.

Hey man, I've ALWAYS hit dead center, point of impact. Never missed that once.
