[QUOTE="johnnyk, post: 2265962, member: 307"] [B] “Suum cuique.”[/B] LR shooting at rocks (or steel/paper) is practice for LR hunting, to me. I enjoy shooting "target"s with the rifles and ammo that I have put together. LR is subjective though. A 473yd shot with a .270 Win and a Leupold 3-9X40 scope is a priceless, long shot for me because of the scope's limited power (to me). I need to be able to precisely place that bullet in one spot, aiming for center mass is not acceptable. [ATTACH]292409[/ATTACH] Or maybe a neck shot at 279yds? [ATTACH]292410[/ATTACH] He was looking over his shoulder at me. It was quick. I could see just enough of his neck and knew the rifle was zeroed at 300yds. This is the way I found the deer when I walked up to him. Again; priceless. It gets exciting when the "shot" presents itself and I have to execute. I can look at deer all evening and it doesn't really both me, until I start calculating, put the crosshairs on the animal and start my "squeeze". [/QUOTE]
