[QUOTE="Wetwrk, post: 2432847, member: 27786"] I"ve been shooting elk and deer for decades now. But up until a few years ago it was always with my handloaded .270 and never further than 150 yards. I was the classic fear the man with one gun. For decades. Then the neighbor kid shows up with his long range stuff, and with me being recently retired and in-between hobbies away I went. I'm blessed, I reload a few rounds, run outside on my deck, shoot a few over my chrony, jump on my 4wheeler drive down take picture of the target, drive back and so on and so on. I can shoot from 50, to 1000 off my deck. Further if I wanted too, I could easily set up a target a mile or over a mile. This is all on my own place. I'm not interested in BR, or super precision stuff. I just want a ethical cold bore kill shot when I pull the trigger... I pay close attention to bullet speed, what it needs to expand, and the foot pounds on impact. So I take everything in. I've been toying with getting 7RM but that's after I master this 6.5PRC I just got. I don't care for recoil and I want to see the hit. So whatever I need to do to mark all the boxes is my goal. A big help is actually just sneaking closer LOL.-WW [/QUOTE]
