[QUOTE="Greyfox, post: 1095197, member: 10291"] Yes, given the conditions classify the shot as high probability and I can't close the gap. I've shot deer out to 1000(998) yards. Coyotes to 1200 yards. I don't discriminate on taking the shot based on whether the animal is a trophy or not. Actually, the opposite tends to be the case with me with really nice animals. Interestingly, my best mule deer and whitetail were initially high probability shots, approximately 1000 and 800 yards away, respectively. I ended up taking both under 300 yards because I felt the the probability of getting closer was higher. I think one of the biggest benefits of developing long range skills is that you encounter more, and better animals because of the longer range vantage points chosen. You can frequently get closer.
