The majority of my hunting opportunities that presented long range shots has taken place in MT and ND where there are wide open spaces. In nearly 40 years of hunting I’ve pulled the trigger on two shots at a known 400+. The first was a whitetail buck taken right at 500 yds with a 300 Win mag - don't recall the load. The second was mulie buck at 490 yards with a 270 WSM and 140 accubonds. Both shots were off of rock solid rests and both animals were about to disappear from view if the presented shot wasn’t taken.
Countless other deer presented long range opportunities over the years but the conditions were never right for taking the shot. I feel confident to 400 with one of my rifles and intend to get there with another one by this fall. My intent is always to close the distance whenever possible as I enjoy the hunting aspect of the pursuit much more than the shooting part.
