[QUOTE="4ked Horn, post: 63626, member: 11"] Dave you are correct. It was said to me while I was working at Gart sports in the hunting and fishing department. The man insisted that it was 800 yards and that he simply placed the stadia line on the back of the deer. When I showed him the printed ballistics for a 30-06 as dropping 20+ feet even with a 500 yard zero he told me that "paper aint hunting and a 270 shoots flatter than an 06 anyway". The grossly obese man said this all while trying not to breathe hard from his strenuous walk to the back of the store. It is my estimation that he couldn't hit a truck wheel at 100 yards without oxygen and that the 800 yards was measured as he drove off the back of the hill he was parked on and went around to the back of the hill (100 yards away) that the deer was dead on.
