[QUOTE="MajorSpittle, post: 2023227, member: 53101"] On of the farthest I shot was around 700 yards with my 7RM and 4-12X standard scope. Mule deer on a side hill on a windy day. I aimed at a rock on a dirt trail about 10yrs from him and watched the impact location then applied that adjustment to hit the deer a couple seconds later as it stood staring in my direction from the gunshot. Dropped him in his tracks. I once unloaded my rifle on a Mule deer about 350 yards away and missed every time. Shooting up a draw in some river breaks on a VERY windy day. My brother was spotting for me and my impacts were all over the place around the deer to the point it made no sense. There must have been huge down gusts and shifting winds blowing my rounds every which way. I never thought wind could effect a bullet so much in 350 yrds. [/QUOTE]
