Okay, so after the 215 yard shot at the deer with a bow, did they stick their hooves in their ears, dance in a circle, and say "neener, neener, neener" and run away.  =o)

haha 215 with a bow.

My farthest is probably 40 with my bow and 400 with rifle. I think alot of people who dont use range finders, probably assume theyre shoot at like 500 yards and its more so like 300

- Neck shot on a buck with a .270 at (close estimate )450 yards. Distance gauged with GPS and my pickup's odometer.
- Heart shot on a coyote with a .223 at 368 yards. Distanced gauged with a walking wheel measure.

Need to get a rangefinder one of these days, it would help much more before I squeeze the trigger.

Before you post an answer, maybe we should let all of tomorrows members that visit this thread let us know how unethical any shot over 80 yards is..... just a thought, but I do want to hear about you accomplishment.

Out hunting mule deer(my second bouncy deer) I shot a medium sized mule deer at 650-670 yds with my dad spotting for me.  My first shot was high and above his arse.  I readjusted according to dad and the second shot hit him in the neck killing him dead.  When I walked up to the deer he had an entrance wound but no exit wound in his neck.  I felt on the back side of his neck and my bullet was under his skin....I then cut the hide and pulled the 117 grn 25-06 bullet out and it was barely mushroomed.  I will never forget that experience for as long as I live.

a gopher just shy of 200 yards with my .22. White tail buck at 600 yds with my .270, not sure how I did it, thought i missed him, went across the coulee to get on his tracks, and he laid there dead. Hit him in the heart. Beer can at 500 yards ranged with my .243, well, it dented in anyways, bounced off of course. Other shots too, which maybe be unethical or illegal, and won't be mentioned, because I don't want to be the bad influence on some poor kid, I already have 7 nieces and nephews to corrupt.

Not for sure but a conservative guess would be 550yds up a mountain side on an elk in MT with my Browning 7MM Mag. Went high on the first shot, hit him with the second, he turned and ran down hill to us and dropped over dead at the base of the mountain allowing us about a 150 yd drag. Hit him high in the lungs but who wold have imagined that it would have worked out so well!!!! Almost didn't take the shot because we didn't know if we could get up to it before dark set in if I would have laid him down on the spot.
 

Good Luck and Good Fishin'
