All of my whitetail hunting on my farm is done out of a couple of shooting houses I built. 400 yards is the max range I can shoot out of either place, and when I'm shooting one of my deer rifles, I regularly practice shooting out to 400 yards. However, I have yet to kill a deer at that distance out of either stand, as I prefer to wait on a shot at a closer distance.
I've hunted whitetails for over 55 years, and have killed 2 bucks at ranges over 300 yards, one at 380, the other at 450. Both were killed with a 270. There's nothing wrong with shooting deer at long ranges............just as long as you know what you're doing, and have the equipment that will allow you to it. It takes skill to make a long range shot, just as it ALSO takes skill to outsmart an old buck and kill him at close range.
