As I know, anyone shooting at any Animal (except Coyote) at distance longer than 250 m is not a Hunter but an idiot, or sport-"hunter" who even do not take the killed Animal, just because only a few in N.A. can consistently shoot "accurately" (means: kill quick) at that large distance.
So what is for long-range Hunting. Is long-range associated only with target shooting? Is 250 m distance long-range?

As I know, anyone shooting at any Animal (except Coyote) at distance longer than 250 m is not a Hunter but an idiot..... I'll play along. How did you come by this knowledge? And if you know this to be true, why are you asking if 250 m is "long range?" Those two seem to be contradictory.

... "I'll play along. How did you come by this knowledge?"
AS I KNOW, it is 300 m, but I shorten it to 250 m, no animal will run away if a man is at even much shorter distance than 250 m. Each Hunter should make any afford to not wound an Animal but to make quick kill.
At 250 m bullet drop is enough (just below 0.7 m) to miss and Moose, all of other being perfect. But add many other problem, like wind, bullet energy is around half of muzzle energy,... there are great chance to wound an Animal and never recover it, especially Elk.
But this is the whole another story, and if you guys do knows it, and keep wounding Animals, well it is different problem.
"... And if you know this to be true, why are you asking if 250 m is "long range?"
I see many times wording as "Long-Range", but what it means is all I asked (is it 1000 m or 100 m, or ...). What is definition for Long-Range? and why Long and NO-Long range. Where is the threshold?

Obviously you've never hunted pronghorn. Or elk or deer after the hunting season starts on public land. Every one of them will run when they see a man at 250 meters in that situation.
At 250 m bullet drop is enough (just below 0.7 m) to miss and Moose, all of other being perfect.
Obviously, you are unfamiliar with modern rifles and the trajectories of the bullets they shoot. As well as modern rifle scopes. But add many other problem, like wind, bullet energy is around half of muzzle energy,... ? Obviously you are unfamiliar with modern, high-BC bullets and the ballistics thereof. What is definition for Long-Range? and why Long and NO-Long range. Where is the threshold? Obviously, you are unfamiliar with the concept of understanding a topic before pontificating on the same.

And yes 250M would be a fairly long shot for my pistols.

Good to know that you are still a hunter if it's only coyotes that you shot at over 250m.
