<br>I'm sorry but, your post is certainly NOT very accurate and I see you have never been around longrange hunting or the accuracy we can achieve.
<br>
<br>I would suggest you go to a 1000 yard range and I invite you to come to the Williamsport, PA 1000 yard club. We have over 200 competitors every two weeks at our matches.
<br>
<br>Watch how many 4" to 8"---ten shot groups are fired that day IN THE WIND at our mountain top range. Then go home and check your computer ballistics program and run the 220 to 240 gr Sierra MK bullets out to 1000 plus yards.
<br>You will find that many of the calibers used will have more energy left at 1000 yards then a 30/06 does at the muzzle.
<br>By the way, the World record ten shot group at 1000 yards is 3.151" and the 5 shot 1000 yard record is 1.500" at 1000 yards. I don't believe you have ever been around that kind of accuracy?
<br>
<br>After doing that, then come back and tell us it can't be done.
<br>
<br>100 deer????????
<br>Many of us old timers have killed a lot more deer then that.
<br>Add another 20 elk to the figures too.
<br>As far as tree stands, I know all about them as, I'm also a bow hunter.
<br>
<br>If a person has NEVER seen or done something, they can't possibly comment on it accuratly. They are only guessing and commenting on what they THINK can or can't be done.
<br>
<br>We have done Longrange hunting for years and have been VERY successful at it.---Trust me.
<br>
<br>There's a Longrange video out by Keenvision Video that shows about 11 or 12 deer kills out to 1150 Yards that you really should see. It lasts about an hour and cost $24.95. If your interested, here is the Email address to purchase one.
keenvisionvideo@suscom.net<br>It will make a believer out of you or anyone else for that matter.
