It would depend on the terrain and the ability to make a sure shot. And the quarry.

A .338 in the right hands at 800m is like a .308 at 400 tho. What i dont like is that if the animal needs a second shot then a LONG shot could mean that it suffers for too long while it waits for you to travel the distance. The struggling animal might fall behind obstructions or something

Same thing happens in the bush though? Bang hit something oh fuck where did it go.
