AJ Posted December 27, 2005 Report Share Posted December 27, 2005 Re: What\'s your longest kill? Mine was a 506 yard (per laser range finder) on a ground squirrel in California. I had 3 witnesses that watched me call and make the shot. I was shooting a custom FN Mauser chambered in 6mm-06 Improved, shooting a 75 gr V-Max bullet. I have had lots of kills on squirrels in the 300-400 yard distances with various guns in .223 Rem, 22-250 Rem, 25-06, 6mm Improved, and .243 Win.

Texan_Til_I_Die Posted December 27, 2005 Report Share Posted December 27, 2005 Re: What\'s your longest kill? Well, I'm actually the proudest of a shot that missed. Earlier this year, I tried a 1500 yard (est. - too far to read with a Leica LRF1200 range finder) on a coyote with a 7 mag. Talk about sheer guess work - I've never tried shooting beyond 500 yards, but I gave it my best "Kentucky Windage" and held over about 10 feet and touched one off. I saw the round in my scope impact the ground dead on line and about 3 - 4 feet short. The yote took off, but the other 2 that were with him just kept on hunting mice. They were so far away that the shot didn't even bother them! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Strut10 Posted January 15, 2006 Report Share Posted January 15, 2006 Re: What\'s your longest kill? 486 steps on a small groundhog with a .300 Win Mag 455 steps on another groudhog with a .220 Swift. Those were both in the days before rangefinders were compact or affordable. I don't know exactly what my steps figure out to be in yardage. I'm 6'2" tall. I know they were a long darn way.

drkillemquick Posted January 16, 2006 Report Share Posted January 16, 2006 Re: What\'s your longest kill? Wow, nothing like that sort of distance. My longest was on a wounded buck, with a shotgun(sabot, rifled barrel and scope) just under 200 yards. Everything else I have ever shot has been under 100yards.

Tominator Posted February 5, 2006 Report Share Posted February 5, 2006 Re: What\'s your longest kill? 76 yards right through the eye of a groundhog with my Marlin .22. I shot another groundhog with my buddy's 22-250 from over 300 paces. I don't remember the exact yardage. I don't count that because it wasn't my gun.
