My best shot was 285 out of a Summit climbing stand, ranged at a buck that was moving and stopping periodically in a young cutover. Had to squeeze in the shot when he stopped where I could see him. Shot another doe at 305 in the same cutover out of the same stand later in the year. Had a 150" plus ten point in that cutover that I never could get settled on good enough to squeeze the trigger. That one still haunts me.

The pronghorn on the left is the buck from 584 yards. He had a doe with him and she ran around and stopped at 586 yards. The 626 yard pronghorn was a doe.

This is a Hartmanns Zebra (aka Mountain Zebra from
Namibia. Zebra are extremely tough to hunt and bring down. (For those that will say it’s just a horse)

This is my best mulie and my longest shot on a mulie.

I’ve shot numerous springbok of 5 different sub-species. I’ve never shot one less than 200 yards and most were over 300 yards. The is one is the farthest I’ve connected with but I’ve missed several at much farther just trying to hit one.
[Linked Image]
The tahr hunt was one of the most physical hunts I’ve ever done by far. The shot was tough but the climb up and back down was special to say the least. The chamois was certainly the most difficult shot I’ve ever made. I was sitting on a rock aiming the rifle straight down between my feet.

This whitetail was taken in Saskatchewan in deep snow. I had him at less than 100 yards but he spooked and ran to the next ridge top. He stopped to have a look and shouldn’t have. wink

466 yards with a Remington 700 chambered in 280 Rem. Killed several at 300-350 yards but it's a lot further than I like to shoot.

Holy smokes if this is true I've gotta hear more about it! Gun setup? Rest? Setting? Was it hold high send a prayer and send it or do you have long range experience

Killed 1 at 360 (range finder), killed a yote at just over 500. I LOVE to shoot long range but too much can happen to do it regularly on deer. Most of the time it’s in the woods and I have my .444 Marlin.

I used to shoot steel at 1k with my 6.5-284. It’ll put one down at that distance if you do your part.
