[QUOTE="FearNoWind, post: 1093916, member: 50867"] "Effective range" is, IMO, nothing less than 100% probability for every shot to be within an 8 inch circle - or I don't take the shot. I don't want to risk wounding 10 - 20% of the game I hunt. Distance is only one factor. Coupled with various wind conditions what might otherwise be an ethical shot for me at 800 yards, in windless conditions, can easily drop to 600 yards with full value 10mph winds. [/QUOTE]
