[QUOTE="Huntnful, post: 3059499, member: 116563"] In all honesty, under calm conditions, if I can't get closer, yes. My goal before last season was to have correct data and be proficient out to 1200 yards. Now I shoot 1200 pretty often. Nothing is guaranteed at that distance, so I am also mentally prepared to deal with the aftermath of a bad hit, or celebrate a good hit. With that said, I've not taken lots of 1000 yard shots on animals, and opted to get closer. I will ALWAYS get closer if the terrain allows. A 1200 yard bomb is absolute last case option because it is far from a guarantee. [/QUOTE]
