[QUOTE="WildRose, post: 888336, member: 30902"] We do so mainly because we are long range hunters. It's what makes shots more difficult no matte what all of the other variables involved are doing. Most certainly. I agree. Knowing the range though is the place to start. A hundred yard shot with a 60mph quartering headwind is still very doable for most anyone. A thousand yard shot with a 16mph wind is dramatically different. Think of how many of those thread are immediately followed up with question as to the rest of the conditions present if the discussion then moves to "what did I do wrong". Driver errors, flinches etc also cause errors that grow exponentially with increases in range so again the range is important in dissecting what might have gone wrong. Same here, it's a discussion so we discuss. [/QUOTE]
