[QUOTE="Mikecr, post: 583728, member: 1521"] While range is a valid qualifier to rifle accuracy, I see no reason to assign range as a qualifier to LRH. For one, there is way more to long range HUNTING than shooting. Long range hunting is a combination of strategy and preparations that extend shooter capabilities. This might bring a shooter to high percentage 500yd kills with a 223, or 1200yd kills with a 408. The most challenging hunting I've engadged in so far is crow hunting with an airgun(without calling). Long range hunting here begins at very far distances, and ends with single shots ~50-100yds. Lot of preps, lot of strategy, lot of expense.. My airgun(capable of taking these shots) cost more than my centerfire hunting guns. Anyway, hunting in any form, is NOT target shooting -at animals. [/QUOTE]
