[QUOTE="Hudge, post: 457986, member: 29704"] [b]Re: Ethics of Long-Range Hunting[/b] I am never hunting deer with a .223 - at any range. I have only ever used a 30-06 or a .270. I am not asking about shooting a deer at any range with a .223. My point was only that I shot a gun with what I would say is manageable accuracy at 500 yards. I didn't know how possible that was, since I'm new to this long-range thing. I was wondering if there are people capable of making shots on animals at 1000 yards. Not with a .223, but with a gun that has enough energy to kill at distance. Also, I just read the ethics rule. My mistake. Let me adjust the question to simply ask if members are really able to control their fire enough to be confident in hitting a game animal at 1000 yards. Again, I'm know a .223 is not a deer caliber, at any range. My question is only about how far members are confident in their ability to engage animals. [/QUOTE]
