First long range kill with first custom rifle

[tCarter]

Not too much of a story to it. It all happened pretty fast. Light was fading quickly when my son spotted him laying in his bed. We got the dope, dialed the scope, layed down, and made the shot. It was, by far, the longest shot I have ever attempted. I wouldn't have even thought about it before I had this rifle. He's not a monster but I'm pretty proud of the shot and happy I had the chance to shoot this far at this nice of a deer in the WA general season.
