Thread: How far away was the last deer you shot???

Not quite correct. Rather than having issues re really accurate.im showing that in.....what's it now?70% ?? Of cases the rifle that will poke holes into 2"/50mm at hundred yards/meters will kill the AVERAGE deer with no fuss or bother. In times of component shortage,the NEED to use fifty rounds to make sub MOA loads,to shoot a deer at under 300 yards/meters seems somewhat...pointless/redundant

50 is excessive, suggest you get someone else to reload for you
