[QUOTE="Bbear, post: 1096194, member: 7898"] I will say 'it depends'. An 800 + shot with one rifle in 'perfect' conditions may not be reasonable with another rifle. If I'm hunting with my 358 Win, then the answer is 'no'. Same with my 25-06. Could I reasonably expect to hit in the kill zone at that range w/ the '06? Yes, would it ethically take the game? Maybe, maybe not. With the 243, my limit is 400 yards on a whitetail. On steel, it's 800. With the 264, Yes, I'd take the shot and expect to be cleaning and loading up a deer. Again, only in a 'perfect' conditions setting. [/QUOTE]
