[QUOTE="MudRunner2005, post: 1392161, member: 12995"] My thoughts on the 1,300 vs. 1,700 yard deer shot... Unless you're disabled, or shooting straight up or down a mountain, or across a river, If you can't close a gap of 400 yards when you're target game is already over 1,000 yards away, then you need to find a new hobby... I've had hen turkeys run beside me and only miss me by a couple feet, and never notice me. I've had curious does walk up and sniff my boots while I was leaned up against a tree during turkey season. I've snuck up on deer and turkeys within 10-15 yards of them combat belly-crawling through the woods. Everyone acts like these animals are impossible to get closer to, and that you NEED a huge cartridge to reach out there. [/QUOTE]
