And with what gun? Mine is (guessing) 500 yards with a tikka 7mag. I made a 375 yard shot saturday. Id rather shoot one a five yards with my bow, but a long shot with precision gets me fired up boy!

Only about 250 on a deer but killed a hog at 937 yards two years ago. Haven't had the long range opportunity on a deer yet.

About 370 on a deer with a .270wsm. 500 on a hog in India with a 9.3X62.

Y'all remember that chump that was bragging about something ridiculous like a 1000yd bow shot a couple years ago?

Impressive. Wished I had a place to practice at 3000 to 500 yards.

How is it ethical to shoot a deer at 250+ knowing you may just cripple a deer

175ish

I'm not a good rifle shot. 200 is my limit.

About 150 +/- 10 yards. Just don't get many shot opportunities past that where I hunt.

230 steps with a 6.5x55 swede

Tons of opportunity to shoot farther than that. I had a chance to shoot a deer at about 600 on Saturday. We have stands you could shoot a mile out of if you had the optics for it. I wouldn't be comfortable shooting much past 200 yards propping up on a deer stand though. it just isn't a good enough prop for that.

I did dirt roll a coyote at about 200 yesterday evening on a trot
