300,400, and above yard shots are common!!!!
I believe the opportunity for such a shot maybe be common but the taking and/or making of such a shot arenot nearly as common. IMO a 300 yards shot on game is a pretty good feat under field conditions and anything but a cake walk. The rifles are capable but that is only one piece of the puzzle and the smallest force acting interms of shooting accuracy
.
The point of my posting in this thread was not belittle those who wouldn't take the shot for whatever reasonsbut rather to say under certain circumstance some will, may or can. Personally I would love nothing more than to never worry about taking a shot of longer than 200 yards, but reality is sometimes it happens and if it is presented in the right conditions I have no problem dropping the pin.
