This isn't really apllicable to a Hunting scenario-regardless of units or reticles.

I'll continue to read, research and listen.




A couple of things....

Right off the bat, if you are hunting or trying to hunt at long range without someone on a spotter..... you are wrong. Everyone misses. At every range. Long range shooting is a two person event. That is where the spotter and shooter having the same unit of measure in each optic comes in.

Gunsite isn't exactly the pinnacle of training anymore. I've been a sniper for over a decade and at no time in any course has "any hit is a good hit" or "a wound is better than a kill" BS been taught.

As well, trying to range using a reticle is an exercise in futility.
