[QUOTE="Joefrazell, post: 1405177, member: 101262"] As long as the gun is shooting 1" groups at 100 yards you shouldn't have any problem shooting elk at 500 yards. Your scope idea is a good one. I'd personally want a quality stock like a hs presicion for hunting. I also would want it skim bedied. The flimsy stocks can really cause issues especially if it's not a perfect shooting position. Shooting sticks are great but requires practice to be useful. If you can get you back up against you pack or hill they can be effective way out there. Without any Back Support I find myself steady enough for around 350 yards. The trigger is also important for the longer stuff. Practice, practice and more practice and you'll be fine. [/QUOTE]
