[QUOTE="toddc, post: 738038, member: 4566"] BKKNUP can I ask you a question? And Im not trying to be mean its an honest question. Why are you on a website called long range hunting when you consider 400 to be past the limit of effectiveness? Do you realize that people kill deer at 3 times that distance with absolute regularity in the wind? Im not bustin on you here I just have noticed that many of the members now seem to not have any concept of what we do on here. Its frustrating to have good advice countered by someone who has never even done what hes posting about. If you guys were here to learn I could see that but it seems as if many are just bored and wanna tell everyone its ok to shoot a grizzly at 1200yds with a 223 because they killed a deer with one out of a treestand at 15 ft. And this isnt directed at you, you missed a bc no big deal, but there are much worse on here at times. I dont mean anything bad by this I just want to understand the mindset of you guys so that I can figure out why guys who never shoot past 400 and dont plan on it are on here giving advice. I just dont understand I guess. [/QUOTE]
