RE: "Margin for error"
Fair enough gutshot.....but the reason I'm looking....is I would "think" we'd all take longer shots at animals.....if we thought we were going to hit EXACTLY what we were aiming for EVERY time we shot.
I shoot from 50 and 60 yds at my house. I have to maneuver a little to do it, sometimes......but it's good practice. If I could hit the 12 ring on my 3D deer EVERY TIME from 60 yds.....I can tell you my effective kill zone would likely expand. I can't. I know ifI couldn't hit what I was looking at at 10 yds......I wouldn't shoot from that distance. But...I can. In between these two yardages, however,.....I've come to feel comfortable with a degree of imperfection......my "margin for error". I restrict my shots to fit within this range. I was just wondering what everyone considered THEIR"acceptable" "margin for error".
