500 yards on an antelope and a hog but my most memorable was a 81 yard shot on a hog, spine shot and dropped it, with my 4” 45acp Kimber with my wife next to me in the truck.

She said I can’t believe you hit it and I just looked at her, yawned and said did you expect anything less??

Luckiest shot I ever made with a pistol.

I had a lease where I set up on a powering right-of-way.
My stand was on top of sandy hill. Too steep and sandy to set up anywhere else.
It was 475 yards to the creek, at the bottom.
My 7mag was zeroed at 300 yards. Loading a 140gr Partition to max. I took 17 deer over the years. Closest was 315 yards, farthest was 450.

Deleted my post above because it didn't pertain to hunting just long range shooting with a handgun so......

Because of the terrain I always seemed to gain access to which was thick woods with openings here and there I've never had the opportunity for a really long shot.....both with a rifle and a scoped handgun the farthest I've ever taken a deer was right around 115 yds. and most were shot at under 75 yds.
