[QUOTE="sbhooper, post: 896953, member: 72297"] I have the ability, but I believe the long range stuff is making hunting into just SHOOTING. It is no longer a game of beating an animal at his own game. Shooting 500-1000 yards takes target skill-not hunting skill. There is too much room for error at that range to be poking bullets out there. I know of one well-known hunting crew that lost a lease after the landowner started finding bull elk laying around with holes in them from the long range "hunters". I realize that this site is for long range hunting, but it seems like ethics are being overshadowed by the desire to see how far away someone can punch a hole in an animal. [/QUOTE]
