[QUOTE="Fiftydriver, post: 126027, member: 10"] Shawn, Ya know its funny, when I took this rifle to the range the first couple times at 100 yards I was not overly impressed with it as far as accuracy was concerned. It is a legit 5/8" to 3/4" rifle at 100 yards. Being as it was a very light weight rifle for its level of power I was happy with that and was just going to limit it to 600 yards and under hunting for a general purpose rifle. Well, since that time I have gotten her out at long range and have been totally amazed what it has done at longer ranges. If you had asked me after those two range session if I would be using the rifle past 600 yards I would have laughed at you. Now it has chalked up the following one shot kills on big game, 300 yard pronghorn, 600 yard pronghorn, 730 yard pronghorn and a 745 yard whitetail. Yes the deer was a two shot afair but that was my fault not the rifles. I guess thats why I tell my customers that they should test any load that will consistantly print under 3/4 moa at 100 yards with these extremely long heavy Wildcat Bullets at longer range because they will suprise you most of the time. I have one more important shot to pull off this year and hopefully you will be witness to it!! Very excited now about coming down to hunt with you!! Kirby Allen(50) [/QUOTE]
