Here' s KB moments before the impact of a 757 into WTC (ABSOLUTELY no disrespect towards WTC victims intended, this picture is a fake)



I can see no reason to shoot at extreme ranges.
I can, it' s a challenge! Now, caution is hte word when HUNTING at extreme ranges.

I would have NO hesitation about taking a deer out to 600, but beyond that I would not risk it, and that' s primarily because I KNOW my bullet and I know my rifle, it drops 12 minutes (36 clicks) from teh 100 yard line to the 600 yard line.....


It' s just a matter of practice, in reality there are few places in wooded area' s that you will ever shoot bey ond 200, some of our clear-cuts will go out 300 or 400 yards, and a good hunter would stalk the prey.......but a long shot would be challenging as well.
