Tiggeer: You are the only one here calling people names. I don' t do that. I dissagree with people and when they say something that I feel helps my side of the argument, I say so. I simply dissagree that Dale should have taken that first shot. Doesn' t mean I don' t like the guy, we would probably get along great otherwise. I will buy him a beer anytime.

Yes, I have wounded deer, even at 100 yards, but there is a limit to how far we should shoot at game and it is individual to each person. If you will read all of my posts, you will see that I have given the other side some credit too. That said, everything must go absolutely right at 800 yards or you will either miss or wound your quarry. The fact that Dale hit a deer sized animal in the neck on the second shot seems " lucky" to me in light of the fact that he missed the first one " to her right." You might have a 4 inch kill zone on the neck of a deer. I doubt that his rifle shoots groups that tight at 700 yards consistently. If it does, power to him, but why did he miss the first one. Either he is a great marksman and he just missed the first one (I certainly wouldn' t fall into that group) or he was a little lucky the second shot.

Good hunting
