RE: Long range shooting, power vs. ability to shoot well?
Are you talking about shooting at animals or targets out at 500 yards? At 500 yards, a 1 MOA rifle will shoot about a 5" group, usually from a bench with no wind, picture perfect shooting forum, and all the planets lined up perfectly. If you can shoot that well under " real world in the field" conditions at live animals, you are damn good shot, much better than me. I' m still trying to figure out how to sneek up to within 200 yds!
