[QUOTE="Hugnot, post: 2762085, member: 115658"] 400 yards - beyond that greatly increased drop, increased wind effects, and increased time of flight all of which will increase probability of a wounding but not killing shot. I might be a speciest because the horizon is the limit for rodents. As I write this, in view are the horns of a big white tail I shot at 391 yards with a .280 Rem using a 139 Hornady spbt at about 3,000 fps. Another set of horns came from a big alfalfa mule deer shot at 367 yards with a .25 Souper (.25-.308) using a 100 grain Barnes TSX at 3,100. After that I quit shooting deers. [/QUOTE]
