[QUOTE="Porker, post: 1341059, member: 22907"] phew .. at least I now know that most of you are not super human and use range finders at even closer ranges. I have not lost an animal yet but came pretty close with a longish shot on a blesbuck in Africa, where I shot him a little behind having not accounted for wind. Range was given by the guide (not using rangefinder) at aprox 300m, on foot it took me a couple of hours to find him and settle things ... I have been fairly successful out to 300m on fox with my 243 (sold) without a rangefinder, mainly going on MPBR, but even foxes need to be taken humanly i feel. I will have to incorporate my Redfield rangfinder as hunting tool from now on since i'm looking at deer, goat and pig's ... definitely set on the CDS system but i will follow your advice and shoot my load extensively before I submit data [/QUOTE]
