Thread: Long Range Goats Video... Not mine.

There are some good kills there however looking at the ranges and kills and remembering they are live animals I'd be calling that calibre and projectile selection as something best suited within 500 for good kills in variable winds that they had. Some good shots but best consistent kills were inside 500

This guy is a bloody top shot, and top bloke. I disagree with horihunters comment about the distance and projectile choice. With an experienced shooter who can pick winds well anything out to 800 should be a dead duck with his set-up. The 168's are still packing enough punch for a goat. Obviously not recommended for your average joe with his new tikka and a 3-9 x 40 scope tho...

Some of those shots are far from good kills, a couple will take a long time to die and no effort put in to finish them off with the ones still in full veiw, the second or third goat with the gut shot high and rear should have had a quick follow up shot, as could a couple of others, yes at that range you get the odd wind call wrong but I have another round ready. That scrubby shit would not allow the follow up knife work so a quick second shot is best.

I am not saying hes not a good guy just I wouldn't have put some of those kills online...
