To be completely fair, Falcon and I both hunt areas where shots over 150 yards would be common unless you wanted to stalk up on your quarry or really pattern them well to set up ambush points. Which, from what I gather from Falcon, he and I both do. I grew up Eastern hunting mainly heavily wooded areas where my long range shots would be 100 yards. But whenever we would go out west to hunt, I would have shot opportunities out to 1000 yards. As BarnesAddict put it, long range is definitely dependent upon your location for definition. What some Eastern hunters consider long range, a Western hunter wouldn't even consider that a chip shot.
