Thread: Are hunters taking longer shots these days?

Once I got a friend or say a rich guy I knew in Auckland, and he have all the expensive hunting tools, all the firearms are European products. But he never got a deer as far as I knew. I like long range shooting I guess mostly it `s because those movies I enjoyed very much but I do `t think I am sniper material, rifleman maybe since mathematics is not favorite, even I am good with numbers in biz.
During C19, I did spend lots of time to learn how to verify distance by using mil dot, binoculars with compass and maps because I got save rooms for my camera and heave lens. Tried to train my brain to fast calculate those compensations for winds and elevations like building my muscle memory. But now I think the first high power rifle I will buy is the rifle with iron sight on whatever it `s sako, CZ or old k98 8mm. I enjoy the action more than a deer, explore somewhere I have never been for next time, yeah I did encountered some deer within pistol shooting range.
