[QUOTE="FrogFire7, post: 2340470, member: 101482"] Just something I thought about the other day. I know this is a long range hunting forum, but honestly here in NE PA, I rarely take a shot over 250, often because we don't get a lot of places where we can see super far, or of we can see very far, it's onto another parcel of land we don't have permission to hunt. Additionally, I'm not proficient enough to feel comfortable taking a shot at anything other than groundhogs at ranges past maybe 500 yards. Maybe 600 if conditions are perfect. I have been scrolling here a lot lately, and I've been seeing a lot of posts with pictures from this year hunting, often with captions like "28 Nosler, 85 yards". Which is fine, I personally don't like to be under gunned and don't like to be limited by range ☺️ So, just for fun, what is the average distance you get shots on game? While we are at it, what's your personal limit on taking a shot at a big game animal? Feel free to answer either or neither 🙂 [/QUOTE]
