I'm not quite sure if you're angry with me or just everyone on this thread and in general but take it easy friend. I really agree with what's at the heart of your comment; however, your generalization in grouping everybody whose ever taken "a long shot" together is and always will be inaccurate (pun intended).
It's not just the distance in yards; it's all the other circumstances that are present that determine for that hunter at that moment in time whether the shot is ethical or unethical, right or wrong.
