I'm in. My one and only but I'm sure proud of the shot. I can tell you the 7STW will get a lot of rounds down the tube at longer ranges. It's an awesome caliber and rifle.

523 yards on a 6pt on Alabama on a dog hunt.
First shot was a little closer with the .06 but luckily I was real close to the truck on a logging road. Went and got the
.300 RUM and after knocking a beam off on the first shot with it while he was laying down and crawling, he got up and the second shot with the RUM dropped him.
Ranged, not stepped. Guys couldn't believe it til one of them found my shell casing where I swore I was standing. lol
To be honest, I'm still amazed I made that shot.

I'm with you Steven. I don't know of any spot I hunt where there is even a possibility of a shot over 350 yards. That's only when I hunt open fields. Most of my shots are usually 20-30 yds.----Up close and personal in the thickets.

No big game kill over 500
At a Dynamite Shoot I shot the size of a coke can at 750, hit 2 cans right after one another after 12 rounds to dial my Browning 7mm stainless stalker in.
Bull elk at approx 410 yds same rifle one shot, died where he stood
I got good long range experience shooting ground squerrels with 22's when I was little. Started at about age 9
