Re: DON'T STRETCH THE TRUTH !!!!!

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"
.

Re: DON'T STRETCH THE TRUTH !!!!!

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.
 
Re: DON'T STRETCH THE TRUTH !!!!!

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....

Re: DON'T STRETCH THE TRUTH !!!!!

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.
 
Re: DON'T STRETCH THE TRUTH !!!!!

Smacked a yote at 523yds with my M40A1 using 168 Federal match. Spun him like a top.

Hit a yote alot further than that on my 5th try with a 223 55grn fmj but I won't disclose how far in fear of the "b**l s**t" flag being thrown.
