    personally I would not be trying to shoot any any animal past what you consider a doable range on an average or poor day.

    these types of threads give me the heeby jeebies... just have visions of guys who very occasionally are able to shoot a small group off a bench at the deerstalkers range going out and shooting at animals from unstable shooting positions, in the rain, with buck fever running in their veins etc
    Pop Shot, mudgripz, BRADS and 2 others like this.

    Ha. What's new
    The range of what we think and do is limited by what we fail to notice. And because we fail to notice that we fail to notice, there is little we can do to change; until we notice how failing to notice shapes our thoughts and deeds
