[QUOTE="TXAoudadKlr, post: 1112429, member: 67390"] I don't Long range hunt specifically, I only started getting into to extend my effective distance. Because I don't want to wander back to camp and say I saw a HUGE (Insert game species) but it was too far, so I started learning about and practicing shots at longer ranges so I'd have another skill/tool at my disposal. I couldn't care if my shot is 5 yards or 500 yards makes no difference to me but I tend to be more proud of it if done at longer distance's. I don't quite agree with another thing he said about not being able to get the same accuracy off a bench as in the field. I believe if you practice field position shots you can be just as accurate. Another article I read of his, he stated for using reticle vs dials. if needing to do a quick shot use the reticle and if Now this is what ****ed me off, "if you are so far away the animal you are after has no idea of your existence than you dials". Far away or not if you are a good hunter the animal shouldn't know you are there regardless of distance. I've had deer walk by my stands a just 3 yards away, hell my grand father killed a 150 class 10pt sitting on a 5 gallon bucket next to a tree by just remaining still and quiet several years ago.
