As well put as could be Bob. Pushing product is what so many shows are geared towards. For the extreme long range shots on those shows the scenario where things go wrong are never shown. When the time of flight is long (and in hunting 1 1/2 seconds is long enough) an animal can easily take a step and everything changes regardless of how well you've doped the wind, the distance, etc.
I appreciate the guys that do it well and as you say that comes largely from practice with round count in the thousands, not just dropping the cash on a long range rig and "dialing it up and letting it go"
Thank goodness for long range shooing and shooters, it helps us better all aspects of our equipment. Big difference between long range shooting and long range hunting.
