[QUOTE="memtb, post: 2783403, member: 75451"] I suspect that some, may even many, on this forum will occasionally hunt timber where shots may be under 30 yards! Some of us have made shots measured in feet. I had numerous failures with a boat tail with an mv of around 2600 fps! At ranges from around 30 yards to around 100 yards. I’ll not risk that again! When the shooter knows that he will not exceed 400 yards in the “long game”….likely he should be prepared for the ‘short game”! For myself, and only speaking for me, my cartridge is fully capable out to 900+ ….though my personal limit is 600 yards. My shots could vary from quite close to the aforementioned 600 yards in the same day of hunting, on game from deer to elk…including potentially dangerous animals. Consequently, I use a mono, with is reliable from the muzzle to my self-imposed range limit! Obviousl, my bullet requirements are not that of everyone! But, perhaps should be considered by everyone hunting conditions such as I described! Very respectfully, memtb [/QUOTE]
