If I had a range finder, or stakes and I practiced everyday like a did for one summer at 70 metres, I would take a 40 yard shot at the most, If I was going to strech it or lost my head, maybe 55metres. But I think the closer you are to an animal, the less mistakes can go wrong , and you can pick better spots to shoot. from 5-20-25metres. I don't think long shots are unethical, it depends on the experience of the hunter, and how well your equipment and yourself is tuned.
Good shooting.
