Home Forums Hunting & Shooting Long Range Hunting This is the long range hunting forum

Cartridge, rifle, knives? Need specifics. Liking it. Good job!

Maybe it is just the one azzhat that is making me categorically say what I said.

The Karen dudettes will bleat like azz fkd sheep and be happy with glee

But the moment someone stands up and says something in defense

These Karen dudettes will shriek like cu nts & bleed all over the place in a hysterical hissy fit

Then claim "the other guy started it" innocently

Such is my experience on the 24 Hr Cu ntfire with these twats

If you can't shoot worth a fk beyond a couple hundred steps, STFU and stay in the retard lane where you belong .

. period ...... that means you ... you bloody cu nt

I thought everything except "Long Range Hunting" were the short range hunting forums. The ability to place bullets on target with repeatable precision at any range that still results in sufficient bullet upset and expansion is a skill worthy of pursuing. If we're talking about shooting game so far out where recovery is difficult, or where the bullets no longer expand to quickly drop game then I think we've lost something.

The best shots are made at the keyboard !

By title, and thread heading, "this is the long range hunting forum", not "the long range target shooting forum".

Question?

What animals are you killing at long range?

How many times a year do you hunt long range?

How many animals do you take at long range annually?

Thanx in advance,

GWB

Groundhogs and the occasional coyote, which I doubt they have very many of in WV. Guranteed a paper puncher. Come out west if you want to play the long range HUNTING game. Not from your back porch shooting paper targets game.

This is a good example of long range hunting and what happens afterwards. If I recall these elk were killed somewhere in the 600 yard mark. Then, you have to get to them. Then, you have to work your azz off getting them back to the truck. Then, you process it for your family. That's a good example of full circle long range.

For a girl who has so little LR shooting experience you sure run that suck a lot.

Maybe post less and take more notes?

Nah, no coyote problems in WV, or anywhere else in the east.......

Azzhat has spoken, hanging on my every word, funny as f uck.

maybe if you stepped outside of the '06 & H&H love box, you'd see a lot further

Trolling, and hanging on my every word...lol

Reminds me of the stone throwing that goes on over bear hunting. Bait, hounds, spot and stalk. Each think their method is best and the other isn’t ethical. Keep in mind this [bleep] is an anti hunters wet dream. Infighting makes us weak. If you want to shoot something at a mile and employ the gear,skill and time to do it, good on you. Same as if you want to kill and elk with a big [bleep] spear from a tree. If it’s legal go for it. I support whatever legal and ethical means you enjoy just support me as a fair shake.

That just stoops to the level that you’re complaining about. I’ve shot hundreds of deer for crop damage in the late eighties with my dad and uncles at distance. I had my 300 Win mag zeroed at 450 yards simply because across a 40 acre field was as close as we could get. We all did. I used a 30-06 for regular deer season where shots would be closer in the woods. Back then no one heard of range finders or turrets. You knew your distance, where your zero was and where you hit in between. Also knew how to use your duplex. I also track and still hunt. I’ve crept up on Deer in their beds and shot where they lye. And yes with irons on my 35 Whelen. Both styles take commitment and skill and neither is easy.

Right, this happens most of the time if you stroke a turkey call in hardy county wv.

Yall have literally no idea about vast numbers of coyotes. And I guarantee you don't shoot them at extended long ranges there on a regular basis.

I'm for one glad you don't know a f-ucking thing about what goes on in the Appalachia range, and it would be best if you just stayed ignorant of it. One less dumb ass outsider to contend with around here.

Calm down. You can keep on contending with your Appalachia friends. I understand there are coyotes all over North America. You may have quite a few, but can you actually see them? Out here we can see for miles in every direction and I actually see coyotes on a daily basis. We shoot them year round. Never really have the need for long range on them, but the shots are occasionally long. Long range hunting appeals to game, the pursuit of game in a calculated manner. Placing a shot from afar sometimes makes the situation less complicated. Shooting a dang coyote or whatever isn't necessarily long range hunting, that's shooting and not giving a schit. If you connect, it's a bonus. Long range hunting applies to cervids, sheep, bears, ect., where the animal is taken for food and lethal kills shots can happen. Whether it's ethical or not, is entirely up to those who want to judge. I think people give LR hunting a bad wrap because Joe Blow and his creedmore with a bore sighted phillipino scope with a turret are taking shots based on the trajectory chart on the back of the ammo box. They have no clue where the bullet is gonna impact. The boys packing stuff back to the truck who actually practice with their rigs and aren't afraid to scratch them are the ones who are hunters not shooters. Each to their own. Good luck on your varmints, but that's bot long range hunting man, that's shooting varmints. Just as it would me sitting on a prairie dog down.
