The only constant is change.

Many of the points made against "long range"taking of gamewere also no doubtuttered by Mountain Men using flintlock musketsand considering a 70 yard shot for a large/tough game animal as being"long range."

Now hunters usings scoped centerfire riflesroutinely consider a 200-300 yard shot easy and ethical.

Technology moves ever forward.
Techniques and talents improve.

And those who are steadfastlyanchored in the past.... complain.

I've shot plenty of stuff close, now long is starting to look quite interesting.
