This forum title should be changed to Long Range Shooting.

Let's call a spade a spade folks.

Congratulations on your past long range shooting successes, POP. Very nice shooting. Good to see you're as lousy a hunter as the rest of us.

Spades are spades, and I call this one a hypocrite.

I sincerely hope I am wrong and that was an attempt at sarcasm on your part.


Jon, we have been though this before on another forum haven't we? Anyone can do what they want, just like anyone can have an opinion. You can air yours as I air mine.

A hypocrite? OK yah....according to your standards.
500 yards is my limit and yes that is extreme long range for me. Ideal conditions existed (for probably the only time in windy Wyoming <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/shocked.gif" alt="" />). I could not get closer after a while of trying so I took the shoot. If this makes me a hypocrite then OK........

but in my opinion not quite the same as:

[color:"red"]
1. Hmm he is too close, let me see if I can get one wayyyy out there.

2. Let's see... I can get closer but my ego does not allow me to kill one that close.


3. Let me lob substandard match bullets at deer/elk at over 1000 yards just because their bc is higher. [/color]


Please do not mistake the above statements as an invite to a flame war that has been fought I do not know how many times here and on other forums. These are statements that have been infered by myselfand others from statements and actions of some long range shooters. Again this is my opinion just like the gentleman who suggested you call it long range shooting and not hunting...because hunting it is not.
