Thread: Whats the longest shot youll confidently take at an animal

Well it all depends on what rifle I'm using at the time.
6.5CM I'd go to 300m
6x45 about 300m
223 roughly 300m
Give or take a few m's either way

Bloody hell you lot should find a time machine,,pop back to the 60's,70;s and do some work for the Forest Service. Hell yi could've done all your shooting without leaving the hut.
If yi cant see your own reflection in their eyes then yi too far away lol...
when's the '' how close have you taken a shot at wild game''..thread gunna happen,that could sort the boys eh.
Entertaining fi sure but I guess with all this bloody gear available nowadays....hunting just aint the same.

How close ?

I was hunting with a father/son combo when a fallow hind jumped up and ran between the father and I leaping into the air at chest height

I grabbed it mid way and dragged it to the ground, a knife settled the score for good

The dad looked rattled and i could hear the kid crying somewhere

We looked up to see him 20 yards away terrified that his father was hurt

We had ripped clothes from the sharp hooves but otherwise cool as

That’s the closest one I ever got
