[QUOTE="duckman1302, post: 307330, member: 1183"] quick story - 40 years ago i had the opportunity to go deer hunting with a local legend in my area... i had a new rifle and new load worked up - 300wm that would shoot sub moa up to 600 yards... i met him opening morning, he grabbed a dusty rifle out of the back window of his pickup, and said he had to check the scope... we drove out into a field where he nailed a paper plate into a round bale and we backed up to what we figured to be 100 yards... he shot 3 rounds - we went and checked - 2 hit the paper plate... he looks at me and says "old bessie is good to go"... that man with that rifle has shot more big white tails than i have seen...[/QUOTE] I feel like there's a generation or more of hunters that fall into this category.
