I shot a lot in Western PA (Crawford Co.) in the late 80s/early 90s. M700 25-06 bull barrel and 6-24X Japan made Tasco with 100 gr NBTs. Inside 300 yds was 8/10. Over 500 yds was 1/10. Everything was shot based on eyeballed range estimates, Kentucky windage, and dope charts.

I killed a fair share with a M94 30-30 that I packed along while moving the dead out of the pastures and into the fence rows.

Never ate one. They made good buzzard bait for the next 2-3 days.
