[QUOTE="Greyfox, post: 581794, member: 10291"] [b]Re: How "long" is "long range"[/b] Long range for me is the maximum distance for the rifle/load in my hands that I am confident I can hit the vital zone and kill the animal when the bullet strikes. This spans from red squirrels at 100 yards with my 22LR, to 1000 yards on a deer/antelope with my 6.5x284. When the range starts to get around 400-500 yards with big game, unless conditions are such that I can observe the animal, and where it goes should it run when shot, I'm likely not to take the shot unless I have a spotter.
