[QUOTE="MMERSS, post: 1027715, member: 63748"] [SIZE=3][FONT=Calibri]Zeeman,[/FONT][/SIZE] [FONT=Calibri][SIZE=3]Indeed this is an interesting topic and discussion. As you well know, the questions you pose tie accuracy with precision. [/SIZE][SIZE=3]The art of uncertainty analysis is additionally a skill of true long range marksmanship. [/SIZE][SIZE=3]Being able to predict an outcome with a barrage of uncertainties is too often a topic of least discussion. [/SIZE][SIZE=3]Yet this skill predicts certainty or uncertainty, success or the probability of failure. [/SIZE][SIZE=3]Uncertainty analysis, the ability to estimate and apply the uncertainties, is another form of determining a maximum effective range. [/SIZE][SIZE=3]Technology can be both an enabler and a crutch with this endeavor. [/SIZE][/FONT] [FONT=Calibri][SIZE=3]So what does this have to do with interest in a hunt? [/SIZE][SIZE=3]I will leave this question with a series of questions. [/SIZE][SIZE=3]If your muzzle velocity is 10fps below average what is your predicted outcome based off range? [/SIZE][SIZE=3]If you have a 1MPH error in full value cross wind uncertainty what is your predicted outcome based off range? [/SIZE][SIZE=3]These are some of the many questions flying through my mind before a decision is made to make a shot. [/SIZE][SIZE=3]Precision analysis. [/SIZE][SIZE=3]Uncertainty analysis. [/SIZE][SIZE=3]Skills necessary for repeated success of the long range hunter and what peeks my interest in this venue of hunting. [/SIZE][SIZE=3]Technology only plays a partial role with this endeavor. [/SIZE][SIZE=3]My mind should never be idle.[/SIZE][/FONT] [/QUOTE]
