Buzz Posted December 20, 2008 Report Share Posted December 20, 2008 Took the Encore out tonight to get some meat for jerky. TC Encore Blackhorn 209 powder 100 grs Barns Spit-Fire TMZ 290 gr Shotgun primer As scoped with the range finder 171 yds. Deer didn't go 30 yds before expiring. That's by far and away the furtherest I ever killed a deer. Thing is it was almost to easy, I'm thinking 230-250 isn't out of the question.

Guest IowaRobinhood Posted December 21, 2008 Report Share Posted December 21, 2008 Great shot! Any pics? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Buzz Posted December 21, 2008 Author Report Share Posted December 21, 2008 No pics, sorry. Unless I take one of it half frozen after it sat all night. I don't usually take pictures unless it's a decent buck, or a pile of ducks. Anyway, mostly because I don't want to carry a camera around, but I really need to remember my phone. The one with the really nice camera in it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

wtnhunt Posted December 23, 2008 Report Share Posted December 23, 2008 Congratulations. I know my ml is capable of making longer shots, but my furthest to date on a deer was this shot last year on our ml opener, later ranged where I thought the buck came across at 150 yards give or take a few yards.
