Since this is a Savage forum, I'll stick with those and with peeps, easy 200 yards. That said, Bill Bagwell (aka Sharpsguy RIP) schooled me and with my 45-110 and standard barrel sights, I routinely hit the 500 yard ram. Would I shoot big game at that range? no way, not even with a scoped rifle.
A good principle to guide me through life: “This is all I have come to expect, standard lackluster performance. Trust nothing, believe no one and realize it will only get worse…”

Damn, who pissed in your beer? If anybody should be guilty of pedantry it should be the PhD in math, but you took the cake here.
If you read through the whole conversation you'll see the great assault on God's own right and proper definition of the six o'clock hold occurred well before I got involved. Barkoff seems a little green when it comes to this stuff, so I thought an illustration of the sight-in prior posters were describing could be useful. That was my agenda, no more, no less. Not a little green, a lot green! 😂😂 I’ll re-read it all and process it, and be back if I’m still not sure. I’m 90% saltwater fisherman and 10% shooter/hunter. If anyone wants opinions on setting up a boat, I’m your guy!! 😂😂 ![[Linked Image from i.postimg.cc]](https://i.postimg.cc/1Xy6cgNd/AEE1-C030-E27-B-4017-B688-3-A22-BFAA248-B.jpg) ![[Linked Image from i.imgur.com]](https://i.imgur.com/jeG14tx.jpg) Baltimore Canyon, 30' Contender.

She’ll do 43 knots unloaded, but rarely do we get the opportunity to run over 25knots and with the price of fuel I might be running her on the 9.9 kicker motor! 😡

Not really. My friends boat and when he moved to Florida, he had the nerve to take it with him. My other fishing buddy has a 25’ Sea Cat he just repowered with twin 200 Suzuki’s. He said it moves now. Two of the guys in our club have Parker’s, one I think is a 28’. It’s slower than the Contender, but not a lot. We usually have our riggers up and spread out when the Parker gets there. We often fish 75-100 miles out. I think my favorite eating fish is Mako, but they scare me big time bringing on board. If I know they are a target I bring my 45 Colt.
