Actually, I think you misunderstood my post.

The questions was �Should every hunter be shooting at elk past 400yds?�. With focus on the word �every�, my response was �Not just �No�, but �Hell, no!�

That is in no way a condemnation of those are well prepared to shoot past 400 yards, of which there are many - including myself. My favorite targets are clay pigeons on the 400-yard berm. Targets the size of mule deer kill zones are easy out to 600 if the wind cooperates.

On the other hand, there are a lot of people that shouldn�t be shooting game at 100 yards.

No, I'm not a Ruger bigot - just an unabashed fan of their revolvers, M77's and #1's.

A good .30-06 is a 99% solution.
