I told my 18 year old grandson yesterday to get us some backstrap so yesterday he sent me photo of a doe he drilled at 633 yards!He told me she dropped as if she had been hit with a pole axe!

Gotta love a kid who was raised to follow directions from an adult. Congrats to the young man!

What was the rifle platform?

Impressive shot! In the local piney hills it's rare for me to even find a spot I can see 600yds.........

Was plenty of timberland in north Louisiana at one time but bulldozers raped the land in 1964!

exactly right it wasn't a heck of a long shot. But that says the young man is well trained. And knows how to use it.

We have just started on the 140 Berger in the creed moor. So far so good plus a BC at .640 G1. IIRC.


We can keep Larry Root and all his idiotic blabber and user names on here, but we can't get Ralph back..... Whiskey Tango Foxtrot, over....

Have 8 grandkids and I’ve trained all but one as she’s little young yet at 18 months! The 140 shoots exceedingly well!
