[QUOTE="jmden, post: 329655, member: 1742"] Mikecr, Did I not say above that I put a great deal of time into my lrh 'system'? You are making quick and incorrect judgements that you know nothing about--and you tell me to grow up? In fact, I've only had opportunity (because I've passed up other shots that I felt were beyond my capability) to take two longer range shots at big game, both in the kill zone for a dead elk at 450yds shooting a 300RUM w/ 240smk at 3k mv from a prone bipod position and dialing my MOA turreted scope using verified data from Exbal. In fact, that instance is a one example of why your 'holier than thou' 'one shot' philosophy is phony. I was unable to spot my first shot, right at first light, but got back on target as quickly as possible, saw the elk stumble, but keep walking and held just in front of it to compensate for it's walking speed to place the second shot also in the kill zone and immediately put the animal down. Yes, it would've died quickly from the first shot, but it was still moving and my philosophy is to put them down. I suppose you will find something wrong with what I did and I don't think that will suprise anyone here and at this point, I really don't care what you think. Are you telling me you've never missed placing a first shot right where you wanted it on an animal and have never had a need for a second shot? The reality of any kind of hunting is that there will be misses and there will be bad hits even when you are taking what you believe to be a high percentage shot that you are very comfortable with. You've successfully turned this into a ****ing match and I allowed myself to get sucked into another of your posts that do that. In fact, I wouldn't have even replied initially to your post but for the fact I've been gone awhile and while 'catching up' I noticed another recent post of yours that completely flamed someone on this board that many of us respect greatly. So, I was 'primed', so to speak, to reply to you initial post in this string. I apologize to the OP for letting this get to where it is. Jon [/QUOTE]
