[QUOTE="7mmRemMag, post: 586658, member: 14122"] Not my longest kill, but certainly one of my favorites has to be New Mexico last year. Most of my Long range kills have been from my shooting table, but not the New Mexico deer. I was humping it up one of the mountains one morning and spotted and ranged some animals on the adjacent mountain that were at 650yards. I knew they had to be bucks because they were very dark in color and large bodies. Since 500 yards was my max effective range.... I circled around the mountain to get within 500 and never got my eyes off of them so I wouldnt loose them. I sat down got my shooting sticks, ranged to double check, and adjusted my scope for the shot. Two of the bucks had moved on but I found one bedded down and waited like 30min for him to get up. When He did I put the cross hairs on His shoulder and Sent that 140Gr Accubond out of my Remington 7 270wsm Away to it's new Home! Wham! He dropped like a rock! You can see I was dead on, and with out the best rest (or without my shooting bench rest) and with shooting sticks... I was impressed how dead on it was! But hey I guess thats why we practice right? Lol If you look closely youll see my Dope taped to my scope. My little cheat sheet!
