Re: Range this

444.5 yards. Called the dog's mouth to be 8 inches/ half a mil long. Shot in the dark probably way off

(I'm assuming FFP- or SFP at calibrated magnification)

+1
about 277.7 yards, I would hold/dial for 275, and hold for a high shoulder shot, the difference in the measurement would allow for enough drop to still set the bullet into a kill zone.

Assuming a 10inch distance from top of back to bottom of stomach(and the reticle is set at the correct mil setting {and this is a mil reticle]).

Re: Range this

What do y'all use as an average for chest measurements? I had been told to use 12 inches from belly to back but that would be way off in this case. It looks like this would make him close to 15 inches.

Re: Range this

I laz'd him at 408. I didn't shoot him. Had Mike's daughter in the blind with me waiting to get her a deer.
