Temperature = Warm approx 30+degrees C.

Target = goat standing facing me.
Hit = in centre of neck, instant kill.
Position = seated behind large log with front arm resting on top of log.

Rifle = CZ 527 LH American.
Calibre = 223 Remington.
Scope = Bushnell 5 - 15 x 50 AO, set on 10 x for this shot.

thanks Jeff, just what i was looking for, do you own any 338 EDGE's

I sold my 338 Lapua but I have Shawn building me a LRKM in 338 Terminator now.

I also want to say I would probably not go past 1000 on elk with my 300 win. But if conditions are very good small deer and antelope yes.
