    That's the plan but doesn't happen often. The trophy of my lifetime I saw st 1800 yards . And I got to him as quickly as my body would let me due to stuffed knee and steep hill. Got to 500 yards and watched him disappear. Had I had a decent scope and rifle that trophy would be on My wall . And I can tell you I'm not going to let that happen again by being under gunned
