[QUOTE="MMERSS, post: 888325, member: 63748"] True, range is an important factor we can control along with others. If we can control range to the fullest extent possible then it is conceivable all of our hunting shots could be within range not considered long range. In this case I believe many of our problem discussions would be solved. There are very few hunting situations where we can't control getting closer to the animal. We elect to not reduce this range for various reasons. Absolutely, with wind uncertainty possibly being the greatest variable with putting the shot into the right spot. We should be able to confirm range to target with the use of a range finder. As we are aware, wind uncertainty seems to be the most difficult aspect of extended range shooting amplified by range. Those that want to leave any aspect of pre-harvest facts out have the ability to do so. How many posts do we see with only the range as the pre-facts? With range only some of us would would wish for a dry recipe book while others in the rest of the world maybe not. Ultimately it will be up to each individual to decide on what pre-facts they want to include in their posts. Leaving range out and including the dry recipe book is for consideration versus only range without the book. To each their own on how they want to post. I appreciate your feedback. [/QUOTE]
