The longest shot I've made on a deer was two years ago, 150 yards. The longest shot I could've made was about 400 yards. That was over 40 years ago. However, a 30/30 is not a long range firearm, and I could not get closer.

If you reload, there's no such thing as an obsolete cartridge.

Once you render an opinion, you open yourself up to criticism.
