[QUOTE="BMF, post: 956188, member: 12201"] Excellent point. I truly understand. But if the difference between a safe, and an unsafe shot is 200yds........then neither is safe. I'm just saying make sure nothing is behind the target and shoot whatever bullet is most accurate. I've been to S.D. Prairie dog hunting and you can be 100%positive there's nothing for a long, looooong, distance. It can be done, big game hunters do it all the time Now, here in MI ( and most places in the mi west)I believe the varmint bullet is a better choice. Just because there's so many variables: fence rows, smaller fields, larger woods, quad and walking paths, and houses tucked away in smaller wood lots. Granted we dont have P.D. , but we do have woodchucks and they are usually along ditches and fence rows, where a varmint bullet would be the safest. 4bycamper is absolutely right though....you do "own every shot." So if there's any doubt, absolutely go with the ballistic/varmint type bullet. _________ Brent [/QUOTE]
