About the longest shot I've had to take is 300 yards or so. I'm not thinking that'll make a difference on a 200lb deer, which is about as big as they get where I live. I may go ahead and get one. I wish there was a Remington 783 in 25-06. I'm going to use this gun to teach a kid also, so I'm looking for a rifle with a safety trigger, like the AccuTrigger, but I can't find one with a 24" barrel except the Mossberg 4x4, and I just don't think I can go quite that low.
