[QUOTE="keithcandler, post: 211160, member: 3728"] [b]I think that you ought to forget the 1000 yard thing...[/b] I lived and hunted in Az off of mules and horses for a long time. Can't even remember having to shoot over 400; horses and mules always spot game first. Once you start that extreme long range shooting over 500, you really complicate your life. Even at 500, you have to know your equipment extremely well. I hunted with a 7 Mag, 140g Ballistic tip and partition. Killed everything walking, one shot only; 400 was my longest shot on deer. Elk in Unit 6B were 200 yard shots. I shot pigs with 223 or 357 Mag, my horse always started snorting when we were close to pigs or bears; horse was my bird dog for pigs. [/QUOTE]
