Thanks Sean

A LOT OF METAL PLATES RINGING, ONE AFTER THE OTHER ALL THE WAY OUT TO 600yards FOR THE 101 EDITION IS WHAT I WOULD LIKE TO SEE! LOL. Most of my shots on game have been -200yds. Once I made a 340yd shot on a standing deer(.30-06) from a quickly kneeling position(with three witnesses). I have made a 635yd shot on a cow Elk(with the .338/06, one witness). I have shot out to 1200 yards just playing around and have not counted it. I have shot out to 600yards at Sean's steel plate several times with the ole' .338/06! Only the serious distances should count here. Thanks Gents. Make sure you share your interest about our website with your family and friends. The more the merrier! :{)

Interesting stats on this poll. I felt embarassed to think that most of my shots, whether target or game, were no longer than my t-shots!  (And no, I am no Jon Daly! ) |

Fall 1984 - 7mm Rem Mag Sierra 160gr SBT 2900fps - 4" high @ 100yds, impact 30" low. Exbal says somewhere between 480 to 500 yds (or so).
Fall 1991 - same 7mm Rem Mag Speer 145gr SBT 3100fps - 4" high @ 100yds, impact 24" low. Exbal says somewhere between 530 & 550 yds.
Fall 2009 - 270 Win Sierra 130gr SBT 2940fps - 4" high @ 100yds. Impact 6" Low. The Nikon 1200 Range Finder said 385yds.
My brother shoots a 7mm STW Ackley, Nosler 140gr BT 3450fps. 3" high @ 100yds, has taken a lot of deer 400 & 600 yds. The last one he put it into the eye of the buck @ 585yds according to the Nikon 1200 Laser Range Finder.

Well, I was born in 1983.... so from my perspective you've got a good deal of experience to say the least. First animal I took at long range was in 2001 (not including coyotes).
