My mate got the one standing next to it also with a heart shot.
Not something I'd do in GB though.

Now that is nice, 640, bit of wind?, tough shot. Off hand, I take it! :D Expect some 'member' to tell you off though.

Shooting in the Police Sport UK Games a couple of years back, I was on a detail with a fellow club member who got 2 V Bulls straight off at 800 yards (may have been 900).
Strangely his 3 and 4th shots were shown as clear misses which caused much confusion.
It was not until we spotted his 5th shot that it was realised that he was hitting the ground in front of the target.
Crazy as it was, his first two shots had ricocheted into the V Bull, but the rest were just digging in.

Not quite "aimed for accuracy" but I guess a hit is a hit if it does the job,
