I borrowed a friend's new 26 Nosler and went to a spot where shots are normally 250-300yds. Of course a doe walked out at 100yds. She ate good though! Nice one BTW. I'd love to go hunt one of those someday. 250-300 yards, LOL thats 308 range easily for me. But isn't it funny you gear up for long and they walk out and sniff on you. Gear up short, and they are way on out there and no way to get closer... YMMV. We can keep Larry Root and all his idiotic blabber and user names on here, but we can't get Ralph back.....

Would you recommend a rig like your's for my brother in CO who's looking to thin herd and just pick one accurate long-range zapper to take all NA species? He does have a .375 should he go for grizz and such. �When in doubt, I whip it out.� Uncle Ted
