    Oops.

    The .429 Mini Mag connects at 170 yds with a Lee 310 cast. Zipped right on through.

    Thru or not it is on the ground and you are touching it so that means meat on the table!!!!!!! Great hunting.

    Nice shootin'! 170 yds is fantastic with a handgun even with a scope!

    It used to be a Ruger SBHH Bisley, but I did a little work to it. The barrel is a Mcgowen. Scope is a Bushnell Ellite 2-6X32.

    I never hunted.....aside from shooting groundhogs. I have some accurate rifles that print some really good groups all the way out to 600 but if I had to take a shot at an unknown distance, I would be lost. Doing that with a handgun is impressive...to me anyway.

    Thanks guys for all of the positive replies. I was pretty confident out to 150 from shooting sticks and I figured another 20 yds was doable fairly easy. It was a pretty steep downhill angle and the shot went a little high. After this hunt if I keep my practice up I won't shy away from another shot like that. I think it's just spending the time with the gun and figuring out what you and the gun have in ya.
