1045 yds…. donkey with 7mm Rem Mag.
I took my one and only antelope so far at 615 yards with my 6.5 X284 NormaI shot my furthest this weekend at 465 yards on a whitetail doe. I'm sure I'm not even close to the farthest and probably not even what some consider long range but it's pretty far for me. I used a 6mm creedmoor 88gr hammer hunter 3340fps at muzzle and 2240 estimated at impact.
It got me thinking about how far other people have taken animals. Post em up with what cartridge and loads you used.
