Great buck, congrats. What was the range?

I shot the buck at 150 yards with a 250 gr. hornady sst. pushed by 100 gr. of triple 7 loose powder.
180 yards is my max range but with a 10 - 20 mph wind, that was out of the question.
I knew I could crawl to within 150 yards.
So that's what I did before taking the shot across a small draw.
The bullet broke the front shoulder and fragmented into the off side shoulder.
The buck ran about 30 yards before going down.
