I guess i am happy that he got LUCKY. I have always hated it when shots at game are taken at that kind of distance. You never hear at how many are wounded or lost. 1000 yards is completely unethical in my book. Maybe getting old is making me cranky but i don't care. Stop the crazy shots at that distance and try actually hunting for once.

"Ethics" discussions are not permitted here on LRH. And ....... you have chosen a site that is dedicated to "Long Range Hunting"; and this is where you chose to post a negative commentary about the foundation of the site? Interesting.

I have seen more wounded animals from a hunter who picks up a rifle 1 week before season and shoots 3 rounds at 200 yards and holds high at 300 hoping to get a good shot. Then a longrange shooter who gets the correct gear and practice once a month!
