Longest shot you ever made.

T1jetmech
I had two long range shots today. I took out a nutria at 304 yds today and then took out a beaver at 360 yds. I am shooting a Rem XR-100 in 22-250 with a Burris 6-12x50 scope. What are some of your most memorable shots?

    6 inches...and I missed.


    Actually, it was 1000 meters (yes, 1 kilometer) with a Mk 19 grenade launcher. Hit the target with 4 out of 8 rounds. The first 4 were fired in pairs and were used for ranging shots.

    I took out a Tiger at 16,231 meters with my .22 single shot, open sighted TACTICAL ASSAULT rifle. Same shot also killed a couple of Nuns on the way.

    Wow, did Chuck Norris sell you this rifle? Also, you forgot to mention that it was a .22 SHORT.

    Now by Nuns, don't you mean missionaries trying to spread the Word of God to those godless heathens throughout Africa?

    Savage 24 DL 22 mag over 410. Took out a squirrel at 175 yards with open sights while bench resting on a fallen log.

    The squirrel was headed down a walnut. I aimed at the head and hit in the shoulder. Wish my eyes were still that good; I've been in bifocals for 3 years now.

    I took a coyote about 2 years ago with a Swede mauser at just over a quarter mile.

    I promptly looked at my buddy and said "Did that just happen?"

    Somewhere in my house there are pictures of what is left of a prairie dog shot in Nebraska with a .22-250 at just under 50 yards. There is not much left. [:D] Also, from that same hunt there were a few dogs taken at over 700 yds with a .243.

    When I was 19, I did a guy in Laos with a rifle shot at a thousand yards in high wind. Maybe eight or even ten guys in the world could have made that shot. It's the only thing I was ever good at... Well, see you tomorrow.

    You are right! But don't I get some credit since without my fuel they would not have been ablr to pull the trigger?

    After all I only took half the credit since the Abrams can hit from 4 miles![:D]

    Now for the truth. a woodchuck at 750 yards with a Ruger M77 in 7mm Rem Mag with bipod. man I miss those days.

    While on the 1 Infantry Division rifle team, we repeatedly fired at 500m at a 10" bull, I seldom missed. Surprisingly when I went through a mini 2 week sniper course, we never fired over 300m. go figure

    Best luck shot was 550 yard coyote on a still cold morning ,I was shooting a old Ruger 77V in .308 that ROBAR had reworked. Federal gold match 168 gr under an old Redfield 6x18 scope,I used a 12" pine as a standing rest and put the dog on the top of the bottom thick post(duplex).It wilted him.I could not believe I hit him and had a witness I would have never told of it.I started out using the scope glass to see if it was a calf as I could not make the coyote out with my naked eye.Im sure of the distance because it was across a dirt road and half a lot of land.

    The tank doesn't need fuel to shoot the gun, does it? Last time I checked it wasn't absolutly necissary....

    Longest shot I ever made was center of gravity shot at 50 yards with a GP100 (4 inch barrel if I recall correctly). Only about two inches off from dead center.

    2 miles. A Boeing 747 taking off from JFK, using my ultra-deadly, armor-piercing, cop-killer .50 BMG terrorist rifle.

    I use the same rifle to blow up oil refineries and derail freight trains.

    Okay! I admit it! It was only 149.87 feet! I was just trying to impress everyone with my shooting, so I exaggerrated!

    Actually, I only know it was 50 yards since the range had yardage marked. [:D]

    I gotta tell you folks about a dove shot I made,The shoot was about over (beer time) and I stuck a #5 hi brass 16 ga bullet in my mod 12and waited on a super high straight on shot, lead the bird long as a fatladys dream shot and one pellet must have hit the bird in the head as it came down like a helicopter,picked him up stuck him in my vest,took my cap off and took a bow,the damn bird came to life and flew out of my vest back,I threw my gun up an emptied the pump(probably no plug in those days) and never cut a feather!
