Anymore with this one? I got a box of 500 sitting here waiting for my PVA order which will be a little bit still.
Killed a doe at 480y, was a calm morning, and poi was about 6" right of where it should have been from a stable shooting position. Animal quartered too, bullet entered ahead the diaphragm, bout mid way through chest cavity, it crossed over diaphragm into gut cavity. Doe was stumbling on her feet for 20 steps or so then went down. I finished her with a knife.
The woman's buck kill was also right of her poa. I believe the zero shifted during the 600 mile transport in the bed my F350(not a smooth ride!). It was zeroed prior to leaving for the trip. After witnessing two impacts not at desired poa with stable shooters in low to moderate wind situations, I put the rifle up until I can re-check zero. Remainder of my tag were filled with the 22creed sending 88s.

87gr Vmax 6mm-223 at about 75 yards. Head shot so probably doesn’t count.
