[QUOTE="BP338, post: 289035, member: 415"] Dumb...it's not that easy to shoot over 500 yards. It takes a lot of practice to get proficient at it. And that doesn't mean that botched shots increases either. I've seen morons out there unload boxes (not exaggerating here...) of ammo at a deer less than 100 yards away! I've heard of guys emptying out a full quiver of arrows at a deer from 30 yards away. IT WAS ME!! (buck fever got me good that day...) I didn't even graze him! If you have the money and the time, go for it! Shoot at it. My thing is that everyone should know their limits. I don't have a gun that can shoot over 600 yards. I killed my mexico buck at 550 yards. That was my limit. I missed a deer at 30 yards with my bow, but killed my elk at 45 yards. It's too situational to regulate distances. Next they're going to come out with an aptitude test to see how good of a shot you are and try to regulate that...morons... [/QUOTE]
