I have made some long shots....too long and shot too hard of a bullet too slow. Both scenarios the deer was able to stop the bullets for my inspection.
Here are some examples and the threads related to the hunt(s).
Too Far (230 yards):

If I remember any others, I will make sure to post them. Haven't recovered any 45-70. Just had to toss that in there!
