This is where I hunt. 12,000ft

I disagree with you muley,i still think it's woodsmanship with an "upper level" of marksmanship added to the equation.
I personally have only practiced to 200yds. but with my rifle sighted @ that distance knowing my MPBR i'd shoot to 300yds.
Like RR said a good range finder is in order.
I like your hunting grounds it reminds me eastern whitetail woods which is what i hunt.
