[QUOTE="Nomosendero, post: 1974906, member: 3622"] You and 73driver are spot on with this. The type of brush in the area is another factor in how far I will shoot game. In areas I have hunted in WY. I am much more comfortable in shooting at distance than in AR., esp. in South AR clearcuts. In the Plains you can find the animal (may take awhile) but if you shoot a Deer crossing a pipe line or highline right of way (esp. in a clearcut) you better have some blood quick or a dog. Once I crawled around in the briers and pines for a couple of hours before I found the buck, he only made it 50 yds or so, but my starting place was 30 yds or so off the mark, the further the shot the harder to pinpoint where the animal was standing. So, there is alot to consider but I want the capability for a longer shot under the right circumstances of wind and all other factors such as these. [/QUOTE]
