Default RE: Maximum Range?

I will theoretically shoot to 5 yards beyond my last sighted in pin. In practice it would take some specific circumstances to actually use it.

I am confident in my ability to kill game at any range that I have a pin for with a known distance as a given........too many variables to put a limit on max range though sitting in front of a keyboard.

Where a slam dunk might be 60 yards at a standing Elk, a no shoot might be a nervous quartering away buck at 30 in heavy wind? I shoot when my mind and body tell me I can make that shot 100%. Might not always happen but Iam surelynot going to mentally limit myself before I step in the field.
