[QUOTE="yobuck, post: 668205, member: 12443"] no doubt as improvments in equiptment, components and cartridges come along the longer shots will become more common. but its also obvious by reading these post most of us arent there yet. many of us will never be there as its not high on our priority list. my concern is and has always been the crippeling of animals. all that need be said has been said regarding that issue. so no need to rehash that. there is no doubt some of us are better shots than others and more practice wont always change that. their is also no doubt certain types of equiptment can make some of us better shots. also no doubt their is equiptment that makes longer shots more probable. but what we hear about for the most part is the gun, the rangefinder and shooter ability. i fully realize that eastern hunters face different circumstances and conditions than do western hunters. but 1500 is still 1500 and i personaly feel different setups are a requirment. are any questions going to be asked of darryl as to his setup and equiptment other than the gun and rangfinder? i happen to think there are others who have tried and failed on these type shots. why wouldnt they be anxious to find what he did differently?
