Nomercy,

It wasn't in references to using hold overs for shooting game, which I do myself on a regular basis. The reference was to someone telling you a BS story which you know is a farse about shooting. If I was to sight in my 300 WM with my particular load at 300 yards it still drops about 87 inches at 800 yards, if I held a foot over it's back then the bullet would drop well below the elks hooves. It was for a example only of some stories I've heard people say about shooting at game, nothing more nothing less.
