[QUOTE="Master Carper, post: 1422314, member: 15527"] Yes, we "can" watch the bullet strike a deer at 600+ yards. Reason - custom 50X and 60X high magnification scopes. Another reason - muzzle brakes that allow for near "0" recoil, which allow you to be able to watch the bullet strike... Drag a 15 lb. rifle across a field? These rifles are 29 lbs. and are not meant to be dragged anywhere... Yes, we do and have let trophy deer go because they inside our proposed 600yd. minimum shooting distance... I got back from Texas a couple weeks ago where I was able to shoot a doe at a measured 1,062 yds and a nice 8 pt. at 1,170 yds.. Both deer were 1-shot kills and was with the Hornady 168 gr. A-MAX bullet. Bullets exited on both deer with the exit hole just under a gold ball in size... Why shoot deer at these rediculous ranges - because I can. I have the know how, knowlege and equipment to do it and because I have shot literally thousands of rounds of ammo at long range BEFORE ever putting the crosshairs on an animal. Being a retired military/police sniper doesn't hurt either.... D&T [/QUOTE]
