[QUOTE="wolffman, post: 541336, member: 12499"] I am not good at telling stories so it will be short and sweet. This past Saturday was opening day of New mexico antelope season and so myself and 3 buddies went out looking for some goats. 1st buddy shot his at around 350 with a 257 wby 1 shot 1 kill. Goats started getting very skittish after that. Next 3 were shot with my Kirby Allen 338AM with 300 gr Gen 2 bergers at 3300 fps using kirby's standard load. 1st up is myself at 1005 yards. Shot was perfect elevation but I missed the wind and was off 6 inches but still 1shot 1 kill because of the awesome power of the beast. 2nd is a buddy of mine and the same group of antelope he shot his at 1080 and I dialed the wind perfect and it took out his off shoulder and another 1 shot 1kill. 3rd was about 45min later and another buddy shot his at 750 slightly quartering away bullet entered around last rib and out the off shoulder DRT! This is was my buddies and I first 1000 yard animal but we have shot past 1000 yards on steel many many times. The Berger bullets did awesome and I can't say enough good things about Kirbys rifles and thats why he is building me a Raptor Stalker 7mmAM for a lightweight carry gun.
