I chum around with Catnthehat, he can hit targets at well beyond 400 yards, He knows how to do it, he's an excellent shot and owns gear to do it. That being said I only took up this sport about 6 years ago, and I can't reliably on the first shot hit the turkey targets at 385 (our range distance) I almost always hit the second time ( I would say I am at least an average shot fromthe guys I see at our range). At 300 metres it's automatic, anyone that says they can hit 400 + without a ton of practise and knowing precise distances is nuts. It's really hard to judge distances beyond that accuratly and guaging the hold accordingly. Knowing the exact distance is the key, when Cat told me where to hold his 1000 rifle on the target it went BOING when I hit it, but that was Cat's expertise not mine.


Life's too short to hunt with an ugly gun.
