Marius - great photos - thanks for sharing! Looks like there is quite a variety of terrain & vegetation, some very open areas, and some with pretty thick cover. I also noticed that many of your hunters had bolt action rifles with rather large scopes, and at least one Weatherby that appeared to be a long-range sort of rifle.

What sort of distances should a hunter be prepared to shoot?

How large & powerful a scope do you recommend?

Asking because I often hunt with an accurate 30-06 that is now topped with a 6x Leupold and sometimes with a 375 H&H Ruger single shot with a 3x Leupold. I enjoy shooting both, and am proficient to 300 yards, or a bit more, with either.
