<br>That was exactly my point.
<br>
<br>Who has been self appointed to put a yardage on ethics for another hunter?
<br>
<br>I believe that its every hunters responsibility to know what he and his equipment are capable of doing at ANY range. If he's comfortable with a set range fine, regardless of far it is.
<br>
<br>Ethics are for the individual hunter "himself" and not what he feels should be for ANYBODY and EVERYBODY else.
<br>300 Yards may be ethinical for one hunter while others may feel that it should be 100 yards Max.
<br>
<br>It's a no win situation for the Longrange hunter as opposed to the short range hunter because he doesn't have any idea how it's done (for the most part) and the equipment we have, to make sure it's done right.
<br>
<br> As long as my friends and I are comfortable with long killing shots, we will continue to do so because it is our choice to do and we have been VERY successful at it.
<br>
<br>We as Longrange Hunters are within the game laws
<br>of every State and kill cleanly, any animal the size of deer or elk, we go after.
<br>
<br>Hunting is hunting and dead is dead regardless of the range and method.
