[QUOTE="Yeager, post: 2067621, member: 78870"] Thank you for your time spent in answering my questions: being a " long range hunting" and shooting forum just could not turn down the want to ask several questions. Don't be sorry about the length of your answer; it was informative. I guess I would like to suggest that you might want to establish an appropriate PBR for that rifle; giving you the ability to point & shoot accurately to approximately 280 yards. Your story suggest you did not range your first shot and having the ability to simply aim and shoot at ranges less than 300 yard can be an advantage. I shoot the very same bullet out of my 300 and it requires a site-in zero at approximately 235 yards in which the bullet never travels outside of a 4 inch circle(2"high & 2"low) in 280 yards. By the way; a very big round for such a small animal. You might want to think about something like a .264 cal for that kind of hunting in your future. Thanks again for your time and interest in good hunting. Good luck [/QUOTE]
