Re: 204 targets (graphic)
Should have been more descriptive lol, top photo is a crow that I took at 150 yards in the head. Bottom is a grey fox that I shot last season at about 100 yards. I was shooting down hill at a pretty steep angle, bullet entered right behind shoulder and exited low in the stomach.

Re: 204 targets (graphic)
Wow, that is an impressive shot! My longest shot on an animal so far has a tad over 300 at a coyote. I have killed some 1 gallon water jugs out to the 400 lol. I need to invest in better glass on my 204. I currently have a Simmons whitetail classic on it and I beleive I could increase my range with better optics. I can't seem to adjust the parallax out when I get to about 300. I have had great success with the encore despite all the horror stories I have heard about its accuracy.

Re: 204 targets (graphic)
It's the 28" pro-hunter 204 barrel with a Simmons whitetail classic 6.5x20x50.
Load
Winchester brass (lee collet sizer, Redding body die when necessary)
BR4 primer
24.8 gr. 10x
39 gr. SBK
2.300 overall length
On a good day I can shoot groups like this with it.
