[QUOTE="Greg Duerr, post: 537740, member: 32685"] The only thing about long range shooing is that everyone tells you about the one that did not get away but few if any tell you about all the ones that did or did limp away.................I saw Grey wolf at the Reno Elk show and when he showed them shooting Elk at 1000 yards I asked if they had any videos of the ones that they missed or wouned. He had a comeback that pretty much said Move on and go some place else. Ultra long range shooting is best left to those who train every day not the guy that goes out once in a while............I can understand 500 600 yards ..........maybe 700 at the most but beyond that the success rate is like the guys who carry around a one hole five shot group ....................but have yet to repeat it. I can tell you about the one time I jumped a covey of Chukar and dumped five with five shots but I cant tell you the time I did it again................My son trained with Special Forces while in the Army and he said that all these guys did was train train and train .............................................. Its all great in theory but reality in the field is something different. [/QUOTE]
