[QUOTE="Raudy707, post: 2476375, member: 105681"] Using my Dads favorite phrase...Hogwash! I've killed a mature mule deer buck at one pace shy of 700 yds with a 25-06 and 115 Berger. Took me 3 shots to get my wind dope right but he dropped with the high shoulder connection. I know a 270 win could do the same to an elk at 400+. I myself have taken one bull and one cow at 460 and 515 with a 150 grain Partition. My grandpa took a big 6x6 bull at 606 yds with that very same combination. Afterall he handed his Sako L61 to me so I used his pet handloads. I don't know if 3 for 3 is reliability but it's definitely a trend. Best part is we used his Leupold M8 6X scope on all three animals. No dialing just familiarity with the rifle and plenty of practice at the range. [/QUOTE]
