[QUOTE="Ronald W Schaefer, post: 1969697, member: 109378"] My long range shots are almost not long range by ya'lls standards. I remember back in the day a 500 yd shot was almost unheard of. But I love the whole LR shooting thing so I acquired the equipment and practice with it. Seems like here in Texas, Im shooting <200yds but every time I go "out west" my critter shows up "over there" a ways. So I have one Bull Elk at 500 yds and one Mule deer at 475, one white tail here in Texas at 386. The bull elk was 180 gr Berger from Greybull custom 7mm Rem Mag with Leo Scope and drop in turrets, the Mulie was with a Fierce Firearms 7mm-08 with 145 gr Barnes LRX and Viper Vortex with turrets (that's my LR baby right there), and the White tail was my beautiful old Sauer 90 Lux in 30-06, 165 gr Sierra Game King with plain old vintage German Kahles scope using memorized ballistics numbers and Kentucky windage. All shots were 1 shot kills, DRT heart shots. That Fierce rifle is a CT Carbon Edge and weighs 7 Lbs with optics! [/QUOTE]
