[QUOTE="liltank, post: 427122, member: 13275"] Mine by far was a head shot on a g-hog. My cousin, son and I were out glassing some fields. I had just put together a new load for my 300WSM using 208 A-max bullets. I had just skipped a fatal shot off the ground just in front of a g-hog at 630yrds. That one was dead to rights, but not my favorite. We were glassing another field after that shot. We saw one mingling around in a hay field chewing on some grass at 600yrds. I sent one at him trying to judge the wind. The shot landed just in front of his nose. About 5 minutes later we see the same g-hog again. This time he was in some brush standing up looking at us. I got my cousin on him and asked for distance and wind. He says, "605 and take the wind out." I twiddle up the turret and get ready to squeeze. He says, "hold on... put in 1/2 MOA right." I turn in the wind and slowly squeeze... BOOM! I recover just in time to see the g-hog flop straight back on the ground. My cousin said, "Did you miss him?" I said, "No, look at the base of the tree you'll see the tail twitching." I hit him right above the right eye back through the left ear. I held on his nose expecting the bullet to drop into it's chest because my other shots were a little low. I was dancing and shaking from the shot. I blame it partially on skill and mostly luck!
