[QUOTE="Huntnful, post: 2327549, member: 116563"] I hate to be the first one to say it, but you showed up to the fight extremely undergunned and unprepared for a 460 yard shot. That CDS turret is garbage unless you’ve personal verified it at every single yardage. 2 MOA off (high) at 460 yards is unacceptably far. I love hammers, but an 85gr. bullet out of a 6.5 CM at 460 yards is hardly a lethal big game setup. None of this was a failure of anything besides the failure to understand what it truly takes to kill an animal at a long distance. I am definitely glad you got your buck and happy for you. Don’t get me wrong about that. But this should seriously be looked at by you and anyone else that thinks these small cartridges and tiny bullets are good for long range killing. They simply are not. And relentless ballistic prep work before the hunt is mandatory if you think you’re going to be shooting long distance. [/QUOTE]
