What were you doing in Stratford besides killing little dogs on the prairie? There is absolutely nothing in Stratford?506 yards on a prairie dog outside of Stratford, TX. 55g FMJ 5.56 PMC. Pre-Remmy Bushmaster AR15 with a Leupold VXII 4-8x. Had to walk it in a bit.
275 yards on a walking Black Buck antelope outside of Rock Springs, TX. 130gr .270 Federal Vital-Shok Nosler ballistic tip. Remington Gen1 Sendero with a 8-32x Burris Signature Select ballistic plex reticle.
Oh- and drinking a LOT of cold beer.Absolutely nothing but killing little dogs on the prairie.
Dragon fly at 20-22 feet Daisy CO2 air pistol.
If it’s a hog, I’m all for taking the long shot. Hopefully you’d just wing him and he’d go off and die somewhere- and bring friends.Shot a hog at around 290. Had many chances to take further shots, but chose not to. Longest on a Whitetail is 155. Both with a 308.
What’d you shoot him with?I dropped a running coyote at a range-findered 276 yards.... used the range finder after the shot. He was running because I had shot over him once, which kicked him into high gear going up the other side of a draw.
That’s a great mount!My longest handgun shot was with my scoped Stainless Ruger Redhawk in .41mag. I took this Spotted Fallow at 118 yards while laying on the ground. Of all the animals I have harvested over the last 50 years this is my proudest moment. Perfect broadside shot and he took two steps and dropped like a rock.
