Wildebeest at 290 yds Ranged distance. Model 70 custom 30-06 with 220gr Nosler Partition. Was drinking tea in back yard when Ranch Manager saw nice Wildebeest down by dam. Asked me to take it as he needed a cape for a previous client and we could use the meat. I took the shot after ranging with rangefinder. Wildebeest went down with the shot. Was facing diagonally away and placed shot behind ribs angling forward to heart/lung. Manager said to finish tea and we would go get him. Finished tea and looked up and he was GONE. Got dog and went down and found lots of blood. Tracked wildebeest approximately 500 yards uphill where he was dead. Shot placement was right where I was expecting. Cannot to this day figure how he went down completely and then got up and went 500yards. After all this it was a poor cape with hair rubbed off on opposite side. Tasted good though.
