[QUOTE="Korhil78, post: 1007379, member: 34818"] Sounds good. I establish my MER by practicing out to different ranges. Based on how consistent I am at those ranges, is what I base my MER off of. That is what you have stated above. I then further limit my MER based on the weather (I.E. wind). I have shot at different distances in different winds and know that I am very comfortable in a 10-15 mph wind at 800 yards on 1st round shots. I have not shot enough out past that in those kind of winds or strong winds to shoot at game in those conditions so I would not do it. Understanding your limits and then understanding how weather negatively affects your limits is one of the key components of taking game responsibly. [/QUOTE]
