Not the longest, but the most impressive was a squirrel @ 10yds with a yellow peanut M&M launched from a wrist rocket in the back yard.
Chupa I just blew Shiner Boch through my nose....that is just greatness! I shot a squirrel off a telephone pole with a Paint ball gun once.

I have shot 600 when I shot nra HP shoots. The Target was as big as a car though. The most impressive shot was a bird at 50ish yards with a bb gun.

longest shot i've ever made was about 325 yards on a cull buck.
best shot i've made was on a rabbit about 75 yards with a marlin .22, bead covered the whole front half of the thing, squeezed it off, rabbit jumped and fell on its back kicking.
bullet went right thru his eye
For it is not the quarry that we truly seek, but the adventure.

Longest lasered shot with a rifle - 364 yards on a Whitetail. DRT Longest stepped off shot with a rifle - 446 yards on a Wyoming Pronghorn. DRT Most accurate shot - About 40 yards on a Sparrow with a single BB in my wrist rocket (~8 years old). DRT Best shot - 10 feet down the throat of a charging pit bull. What makess it a good shot? Shooting a 270 sighted in at 100 yards and a 6x scope. As he busted out of the brush charging, all I could see in the scope was his tongue. When he rolled dead, he almost knocked me down. Oh yeah, did I mention he was charging on a dead run?

Longest shot on a deer is 482 yards (by laser rangefinder). Shot a javalina that was 25 or so yards farther than that. I've taken numerous deer between 200-400 yards.
I've done a lot of target practice on steel at 600M (660 yards). Never had a range where I could shoot beyond that.
Several years my brother and I went prairie dog hunting out of Lubbock. Not sure on ranges but we were stretching it out to roughly 1000 yards. Sometimes we got lucky and hit but most of the time we were scaring the little devils to death.

811 yards on a coyote custom 300wsm 125 grn NBT out of my Spec Rest, it sure is nice to have you own 350 yard range. I can and have gone out to 500 but my wife doesn't like me shooting off the patio.

Johnny I think you'll have a better shot of it if you just close your eyes and let one fly.

My longest shot ever was when slept in a cess pool for a week and designated a target in Bagdad Iraq for a hit by a Stealth from Whiteman AFB, MO...calculate that!! I then had to be quarantined with IV's of Vancomycin for another week. I can't hear or piss very well anymore because of it but I did it for y'all, I am the man
