[QUOTE="Darryl Cassel, post: 668248, member: 34"] That's very good shooting-8" group at a mile. What caliber, bullet and speed were you shooting at the 10" steel? Keep in mind, with accuracy like that at a mile and if you have enough remaining energy left, you most certainly could kill an animal at that range. It's always te shooters choice as to how far he or she wants to reach out. I think it all depends on what presents itself to the LR hunter, the weather conditions, his skill level and equipment he has as to what decision he makes for that particular kill. Some of us would rather kill an inferior animal (smaller horned buck or bull) at 1500 to 2000 yards then to take a much nicer one at 300 to 500 yards but, that's just personel choice. That's not to say we wouldn't take the closer one if the chance presented itself. It makes it a bit easier when you have the confidence in your equipment and know you can do it. Have a nice day.
