[QUOTE="mikea5232, post: 1498341, member: 87416"] Knowing Knowing the ballistics, knowing the environmental conditions, and trusting my equipment and reloads. Tag that onto lots of practice in various shooting conditions during mornings, afternoons, and evenings. I have my own shooting range so i can shoot when ever i have a few minutes to check, double and triple check my loads at various ranges. The wind is my biggest enemy as it probably is with many. I used my kestral to read my wind and my scope to read thermals at various distances. I made the shot in the early morning when the wind was almost non existent but still took the steps to check it out. I had a spotter to confirm the hit if i wouldn't have been able to see it in the scope or if she didn't drop on impact which she did. There is much more that went into this shot than a picture and a yardage number. I hoped people wouldn't get the wrong impression of what was a major goal and now accomplishment of mine ive had for a few years. [/QUOTE]
