[QUOTE="Master Carper, post: 2113941, member: 15527"] Besides building full custom rifles and hunting handguns, one of my favorite things to do is shoot at long-range... Since 1989, I will shoot one deer out to or in excess of 1,000 yds. and this is something I have specialized in. I know, it's called "deer shooting" instead of deer "hunting" but, this is just something I REALLY like to do... The reason for this post is that I'm looking for someone who has the same shooting skill and would like to have someone else to shoot with... Understand that before the "unknowledgeable" start in on how unethical it is to shoot a deer at much over 100 yds., let me give you a few facts: 1 - So far, 36 deer have been shot out to 1,000+ yds... 2 - NO deer has EVER been wounded or lost... 3 - ALL deer shot have been one-shot-kills... 4 - We do NOT shoot at a deer if weather conditions are NOT perfect! This means no wind, no rain, no heat mirage, etc.. If we are not confident that we can make a sure kill, we do NOT pull the trigger. There will always be another day and another deer... If you have the equipment and shooting skills, let's see if we can get together and do a little shooting - after the weather warms up some... One of my favorite off season "targets" is shooting 12 oz. soda pop cans at 600 yds.. I had one guy tell me last year that he wanted to shoot a deer at long range and I told him that if he could bust a full pop can at 600 yds., I'd take him to shoot a deer. Well, 10 rounds later, he could not even come close. I set up a couple of gallon milk jugs full of water at the same distance and still, he never came close. I then decided to set a 5 gallon bucket full of water at the same distance and still, no luck! Think I'm gonna take this guy out to shoot "at" a deer - ain't happenin!!! Let me know if there are any long-range shooters out there that would be interested in getting together.... DAVID [/QUOTE]
