Hm, im 21 and have hunted for 11 years. My largest buck was about a 35 year shot, yet the moose and deer I took this year were both between 250 and 300 yards. I was shooting a .300 win mag, and knockec both animals to the ground in one shot. I dont think I am an idiot, nor should I have my hunting privledges taken away. like Skeeter said, go nuts with your opinions but dont be rude about it. And yeah, stop wasting bullets @ 300 yards if you dont shoot over 75 yards. Maybe think about buying a .30-.300 too
