The doe shot was 675 yards. Shots out to ~700 are really not that hard with the right set up.

Was there much wind on the range that range day with your daughter or when you shot the doe? Wyoming winds makes hitting things pretty hard for me. I agree that on dead calm days it is pretty much a matter of LRF, dial, and apply basic rifle marksmanship principals to a good setup like yours to hit. However, with MT blowing and CO sucking it is always windy in WY grin. Are you self-taught on reading wind or military trained?
