I'd love to brag about my long distance kill this year, truth is a heavy 8 walked out 75 yards from me.
May've had some ghogs longer BUT.
.
My First buck 4pt...
365 paces (standard full step type), prone off of pack, 6.5-20 leupy
Shot with "Skinner" (Sendero SF 7mm Rem Mag.)
140gr Nosler BT over 66.5 of 4831sc and win
primer.
Shot was a lil off but ended up slamming'm hard enough to have'm on his back with all 4 hooves in the air. Was right around that time that rap about get your damn hands up was out..."he got his damn hooves up." So i have an odd sense of humor.

Oh ...an this was witnessed by good friend who was letting me hunt his family farm we were watching a field at the end of the day. Was about to shoot a doe when bucky stepped out. He confirmed and "ok'd" the shot. Actually was more along the lines of:
Me: "Ok to shoot that one?"
Friend: "Kill that f**ker"
Skinner: "BANG"
Friend: "Holy Shit you got'm"
.
finally broke the 1000 yard mark on a coyote -- 1075 2 witnesses with leica's. took 5 shots,,, had a helluva time getting consecutive shots since he was on a river bottom with cattle but finally got the last 2 off right after each other and the 180 crumpled him. Got 2 of them this at 730,, well one right at 730 and one ranged 733 (on different days).. witnesses on those as well but it took 2 shots on one..
got a contest tomorrow so hopefully a couple long ones fall down to add to the tally.
Farthest kill, duck at 125 yards head shot, in front of three witnesses.
In Chandler, AZ with friends from Austin who came up for a couple of rounds and a few drinks. Don't remember now what hole, I was the first one up, teed up by the pond, shank the ball with the driver, ball flew straight barely a foot over the water and smacked one of the ducks on the other side. It was a nice head shot. Dead Duck....
Caribou
300 WSM Browning Abolt
180gr Winchester Supreme Accubond
619 yards per Swarov LRF with crosswind (actually held off animal with mildot for wind)
Leupold Vari X 3 4.5x14x50mm with Premier Gen 2 (when they actually still worked on Leupolds)
Shot from Top of pack in prone position going downhill
Mule deer this year at 644 had a spotter just a great hunt a management deer it was a hoot. Not going to say where I hit him. Nobody would believe it anyway. Used the 308 155 scenars
mine was with a bow we had just set up a 3d big horn ram target when this blow fly landed on the kill area when we reached 47 yards which is the flattest part of the yard i told my friend i was going to shoot the fly and let the arrow fly my 2213 hit it solid enough to splatter it.
