Colby shot this heavy bodied, tall antlered Colorado Mule Deer at 489 yards with a 30 Nosler and the 180 gr Hammer Hunter bullet. Post shot report, Colby said, “he only went about 10 yards before he tipped over. Blood trail looked like an archery shot it was very impressive.”
Congratulations, good shooting, and thanks for sharing your hunt.

Nice deer and nice shot! Assuming 3200 fps MV, and 5000' ASL, impact velocity was about 2400ish fps.
