[QUOTE="royinidaho, post: 149129, member: 2011"] Here's my read on this thread, fwiw Get you w/jessica zero'd @ 300 yds. Then move the target out to, say 500 yds and shoot until you're comfortable with your shooting. Then move the target out to, 750 or 800 and do it again. That process should give you your answer to your own question + plus being a lot of fun and great experience. Bottom line, if you can hit a paper plate "every time" at whatever your max distance is, its plenty good for a boiler room shot on an elk and maybe even a muley. But ya gotta hit the plate (with a complete hole) every shot. oh, what I mean by every shot would be one shot groups at different times on different days. It would be just the same as hunting, you want that "one" shot to do the job. My max distance shrunk a lot when I disallowed sighters [img]/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/frown.gif[/img] Just my tho'ts.
