I think that you as a person are completely in control of what you do and what you believe to be ethical. Just because you don't want to shoot that far doesn't mean that you couldn't. People limit them self all the time. I agree the wind can play some with wind drift. Up down side to side. Mostly side to side but its about using your equipment. And knowing the limitations there of. I don't think you should shoot unless you are sure you can make the shot. But with that being said, on a good day I wouldn't hesitate shooting 1250 plus yards, and have done so on many accessions. Its all about pratice, bullet B.C., sectional density and foot pounds of energy. Hopefully that clears up any misunderstanding. That is why we spend the big buck. So if we see an opportunity we can get the job done. Put that meat in the freezer. You ever been on a hunt where there are so many people that the Elk are staying miles away from where you can get to them? Just as you think you are there you look and they have move a 1000 yards more as you advance toward them. This is where you either give up or have spent the time and money to be able to reach out and touch them. Either way it cost you. You go home empty handed and spent your money for nothing on your trip. Or you go home like me tired as he'll but grinning from ear to ear.
What is your personal favorite out of the bunch. Just dought the Athlon Ares FFP. I love it thus far.
Swfa is a good repeatable scope. My brother bought a couple of them on a count of me.
It's a Bargara 300 win. Your right it is one hell of a rifle.
