Yesterday was a wild success. Father and I saw this big boy come out about 550 yds away right at dusk. We quickly ran 100 yds, deployed the bipod, set up on a road that crosses a highline, turned on the lit reticle (the dark was creeping in and I couldn't see the black reticle against his body), ranged him at 450yds, dialed 3 Mils and sent a 168 grn SMK flying....DRT. My best (and most exciting) shot to date on a live animal. For those not familiar with shooting, 3 Mils @ 450 yds is just over 49" of bullet drop at that range. I was carrying my CAMO 511 in a Rainwalker sheath.
We measured his chest at 48", which estimates to about 280 lbs. Not huge, but a very nice trophy where we hunt.
