[QUOTE="codyadams, post: 1523040, member: 87243"] Ha ha, just wow. Talk about drama ha ha.... I won't comment either way on the shot that the op (original poster of this thread) took, I don't know the guy, his skill levels, etc. But, growing up in Wyoming, and personally shooting in the neighborhood of 10-12 pronghorn, and hunting pronghorn with family and friends, harvesting north of 40-50 goats in that time, I have just never really seen the need to take a running shot unless one was wounded. Pronghorn are about the easiest big game critter there is to hunt in my opinion. It would be easier for me to go kill a goat than it would a rabbit honestly. That being said, I have admittedly harvested a couple deer with sub 150 yard running shots back when I was more in practice. I don't think I could/would do it now, I spend too much time in the dirt on a bipod shooting at stationary targets. In high school I was honestly a better field shooter, every weekend I would be shooting jackrabbits. Wanna talk about some challenging shooting, shooting running jacks at 50-100 yards with a .22 all day every weekend will certainly hone your skills. [/QUOTE]
