    Not bad Mr Nolan, but I doubt you would have hit a Magpie.

    It would have needed new underpants.

    There was a plover, but 300m closer.

    1 shot @ 449m, prone with a sling and my front hand resting on a pack - as I do hunting.
    Haven't shot a deer past 25m with the Bondstrikes, but they look good so far.

    Just watched this guy do 10 shots at different distances on a life size elk or mule deer target. It was quite a good watch to see even if it was just to see his 13 year old son out shoot him. I recommend watching all 10 videos as they are short around 5-6 minutes long.

    Only the first shot in a cold barrel counts, deer tent to walk away and don’t always give you multiple opportunities.

    Did it that day. Does it mean much? Probably not. I wouldn't have confidence to try shoot anything living at that range (even with the big 80s)

    You are allowed a bad day now and again, but seriously @gimp thats bloody good shooting.
    When hunting think safety first
