[QUOTE="yobuck, post: 862681, member: 12443"] i dont think anybody is advocating spray and pray jeff. i think most of us are interested in taking as few shots as possible. but its not a perfect world and in hunting situations we have to remember that. here in the east our hills are covered with trees for example. a 1200 yard shot will be dropping thru a canopy of unseen branches. maybe it makes it and maybe it dosent. a shooter laying on his belly regardless of ability just might not see what happened. beyond the shooting part there is always the possibility of animals changing positions while the shooter is recovering from the last shot or otherwise sidetracked briefly. especially during the rut. a perfect hit on the wrong animal isnt the nicest thing to be faced with either. animals change positions all the time. its very important to keep the shooter aware of which one is the target. seems to me there is more and more emphasis placed on guns scopes various programs and individual ability. that is all fine and especially for those interested in extreme distance shooting at various targets. live targets however require more than that. remember this, many of the worlds best long range shooters live right here. most of them hunt long range and they all do it the same way.
