sbhooper Campfire Regular S Joined: Jul 2014 Posts: 2,556 Nebraska	Originally Posted by smokepole Originally Posted by sbhooper 300 yards is a very good limit. Sight your rifle in at 200 yards and you are in good shape to 300 with a standard scope. Not necessarily. I just ran the numbers for a 168 grain TSX out of a .308. With a 200-yard zero it's 9 inches low at 300. Not what I would call in good shape at 300. With those ballistics, if you cannot hit an elk at 300 yards, then you have not practiced at all. Elk have a large kill zone and that distance is not a tough shot, even with the .308. You did not "seen" anything, you "saw" it. A "creek" has water in it, a "crick" is what you get in your neck. Liberals with guns are nothing but hypocrites.
