[QUOTE="Tikkamike, post: 586604, member: 22242"] I know this has been done before but I like reading the stories. I want to know what is your best or (luckiest) hunting shot. Include pics if you have them. Mine is a toss up. A few years ago I shot a coyote that was on a dead run at about 250 yards off hand with my m70 270wsmwhich I felt was pretty impressive at the time. Then this year I made my first 1k+ shot attempt. It was on a buck antelope. He was very patient while I got set up and as I was getting ready he bedded in tall grass and would not stand up. so I decided I would dope my wind and spin drift and go for a neck shot. Then when I inevitably missed and he stood up I would put one in the body. I shot and he jumped up and ran into a draw. Assuming I had missed we packed up and drove up there. and found them all bedded. They all jumped up except him, he just laid there and his head slowly dropped and I figured he must have been gut shot or something. so I walked over there and my 300 SMK had whizzed right through his neck without expanding and he just laid there and bled to death through the artery I had severed. He is the antelope in my signature pic. Now I want to hear some good stories from you guys! [/QUOTE]
