Thread: WHAT IS A "LONG RANGE GUN/RIFLE"?

To me a long range large game rifle is anything that is intended to be capable of cleanly killing a deer sized animal with the first shot at ranges over 400m.

Buying the gear is one thing, the shooter gaining the skill to do this is another. If your going to spend $5k on a rifle $1k on ammo to learn to use it if you don't all ready have the skill would seem right to me but most just seem to but the gear and then fire half a pack of ammo from a bench and call it done.

Or you could just say that any rifle that doc Watson is holding is a long range rifle. It really is more about the nut behind the but
