Meadow lions were a serious problem at Camp Hunter Liget.
However, the siting system on the Abrahams tanks, using a 105 mm high explosive rifle, allowed for excellent results, as long as you didn't want a pelt, food, or proof of kill.
My best shot was about 7 miles. What were the specs? 27 pounds of high explosives, at 3000 fps? And, the 105mm rifle was VERY accurate. Wouldn't think to shoulder fire, however...
Sorry to say, that hunting ground is now closed. Think somebody put the gun at maximum elevation, fired, and killed an out house 27 miles away.... Didn't help the cause...
