[QUOTE="Mike Matteson, post: 2433348, member: 101791"] That one reason I have held my shot to about 500yds or there about. Most of those shot were done, before any real range finders too. I had switch to a bow for a great many years. and now I am having to go back to a rifle. One of the best ways was shooting ground squirrels, and here shortly Perrie dogs. Sure tunes you up for longer shots. It's not that I don't want to make clean shots with them. I only like to shot paper working out a load. The farmers like you too. A ground squirrel at 400 yds is a petty hard target to shot. Being they are only about 2" wide facing you. With the dogs I am looking at 700yds or so and they are wider too. [/QUOTE]
