[QUOTE="VLD Pilot, post: 1973667, member: 103947"] Alex, Your no stranger to long range shooting/hunting. I've seen your Montana 2K results. I wish I could have attended a couple of those events. Timing was bad but I'll be there eventually if they continue. Wind is something that very few hunters learn much about in shooting. I say very few because all competitive shooters that shoot beyond 300 yards MUST learn how to shoot in wind. Hunters that do learn, succeed in making LR kills ethically and efficiently. 700 yards is a gimme to a wind study shooter. Obviously how much wind, plays a huge part in if the shot should even be taken. Many other factors as you know are nearly as important. In short, I'm not qualified to tell another guy if he should take a 500-1000 yard shot on an animal. Only he knows if he's qualified to make it. If not, he's part of the problem plaguing hunters that get named slobs for unethically taking shots they have no business taking. I'm not one of those slobs and know my limitations. [/QUOTE]
