I was amazed that just after a few shots, I was routinely hitting the 500 yard ram target.

A couple of years later, we hunted bison together in Wyoming along with Doc Rocket and another former post here, EH76. For me it was like a page out of the west, had the buffalo slowly grazing towards us whilst we were concealed behind an old Sheep herder's stone marker. The shot was right at 102 yards and when I came of recoil, all I saw was the buffler with all four legs up in the air. Fun times..
