[QUOTE="HARPERC, post: 1897585, member: 30671"] A rule I give to young guys (but rarely follow myself) Don't trade opportunity for products. Some of us old guys have spent a lifetime getting toys little by little. To expect to jump in, and acquire top end rifle, scope, spotter, binos, range finder, Kestrel isn't necessary to get started. One thing I've done is after sighting in, use animal targets. Walk up to the target, and think what the outcome will be of each shot taken. No point in buying a 100 yard rifle/system until you've mastered the previous 900. I passed on a shot at a mountain goat at 308 yards, prone good, rest, but the wind was up in the "what the hell are you doing on this mountain" level. [/QUOTE]
