Default RE: Long Range Shooting at Game Animals

After viewing this video, there may be a lot of wounded animals running off to die.
As the old saying goes, Monkey, Monkey do. and there are a lot of people (I won' t call them hunters) who will try and mimic the shooting that they see. Many don' t realize that it takes a lot of practice, a full knowll;edge of the rifle you are using, and the ballistics knowledge to take these kind of shot. In my case my limit is 300 yds. and I better have a rock solid rest to even attempt that shot. I think that the video should go into what these ' hunters' go through to be able to take these shots. I would like to see the video, but I am aware that I am not capable of doing such shooting.
