During slack time between deer and elk season, and in an area where it wouldn't bother any people or game, I did a little "rock killin"
I almost didn't show this one but sooner or later it will happen to just about everyone if you shoot enough. I remember Shawn saying in his video that he had done it also. This is the second time in all my years of lr stuff that I've done it and this time it's caught on video. Sure glad it was a rock and not a big buck or bull. Seems that I had all of the environmental data, put it all into Exbal, set everything up for the shot, had the video going and just forgot to do one thing, dial for the elevation for the 994 yard shot. You can see the trace and the resulting "no hit". There is also a slightly condeming audio comment pertaining to the skill of the shooter.

This is the same rock only with the yardage properly dialed in. Much different results.

Here's another one only it's 1047 yards and also with the 7mm Allen Mag and 200 grain Wildcat ULD RBBT bullets.
