[QUOTE="73driver, post: 2432289, member: 36473"] In my shooting experience first shot hits out to 500 yards are pretty much done deal will an accurate rifle and having put in some trigger time shooting at distance. Out past 500 yards things start stacking against first shot hits. Wind, how well you have nailed down you'r ballistics, a good rangefinder that is spot on, a rifle that nails cold bore shots better side of .6MOA every time and the shooter that has honed his or her skill to a fine edge. Oh and a bullet-cartridge combo that can deliver the goods at distance. For how I like to hunt, with a rifle under 10 pounds and a traditional rifle stock topped with a scope under 20 oz's inside of 500 yards is my limit because that's about as far as I can ring a 6 inch steel reliably.
