Although this is the Long range Forum, I would think that anyone would care more about the Possible wounding of a fine game animal that might be left to starve to death because of a shot off jaw than trying to impress someone with their prowess /
There is a difference between taking a high percentage shot and an shot like the video portrays.
That wasn,t a portrayel of an ethical hunter taking a reasonable long range shot. That was a portrayel of an ignorant slob hunter . Although he has shooting skills he doesn,t care enough about the animals to to care if one starves to death because of a misplaced shot of just a few inches.
In my oppinion only an uncaring idiot would even attempt a shot like that on an unwounded animal.
I think that anyone that thinks that this is fine example of long range hunting needs to reevaluate the whole picture and not just the fact that an animal was killed at long range.
