My God Man, get a clue.

You are off by 125 yards on the test.

At 150 yards, there is functionally ZERO chance of a charge.

Iron Sighted DG rifles are for STOPPING CHARGES at close range, not plinking grapefruits off some distant berm.

Further, this is a CLIENT rifle, the guide will have the stopping gun. The Client needs shot placement under Hunting Conditions, the Guide needs shot placement at Up CLose and Personal (i.e., Iron Sight) conditions.

Sheesh . . . . .
