noway and the others hit the nail on the head

(I am not sure of your shooting abilities)i would suggest alot of long range practice speed goats are small and the high desert can challenge any bodies shooting abilities

if you hit one in the leg (and no vitals) they are very near impossible to recover as they can change zip codes in seconds

I practice to 550 yards at the range and wont take a shot at an animal over 250 yards( the extra yardage is just in case the animal needs another sleeping pill
