[QUOTE="Wedgy, post: 1496705, member: 64108"] Most "long range" guys consider 450 yards a chip shot, most know their rifle and load & could just hold over on an elk size target at that "short" range, without having to calculate anything. Most of us have practiced our way up on the bench and in field conditions to our range limits before experimenting on animals. You situation most likely came about from lack of practice under hunting conditions. Yobuck , as I, am tired of seeing the typical guy who falls for the "1,000 Yards Out of The Box" marketing and the ends up here asking what went wrong. Invest more time before, not after. I applaud your honesty, don't take it too personally, it's the internet. Continue to practice and keep us posted. I missed it if you posted any pictures of the elk. [/QUOTE]
