Hitting a pie plate sized target at 500 yards is not something most hunters I know can do, especially in field conditions. I can't remember, EVER, seeing someone at a rifle shooting range, shooting a hunting rifle in any position other than sitting at the bench. An option that does not exist in the wild. And most rifle ranges don't go beyond 100 yards which is even more reason to question a hunter's ability. The factory drop numbers on the ammo boxes are a great place to start your hold, but hardly close to reality. Laughable if that's your solution to long range shooting on a game animal. While I understand their premise, it would be a deal breaker for me.
