Default RE: Ive Got Bad Problems With My .300 WBY

Handloader, you forgot to take in the effect of someting called accuracy. At 500 yards, a man is real lucky to get 6" groups. Thats a good gun. So you take your MPBR, throw in that, and then throw in field conditions. You probably decreased your kill area to 3". And thats generous. Guess what? Thats around a 250 yard zero. Probably a personal limit people should be responsible and set on themselfs to be an ethical hunter. Just an opinion. No wonder I hear of some manypeople shooting over elks backs.

I wonder why people don't get a Mil-Dot scope if they plan something like this. Or the new B&C recticles. At least your not guessing with these as much.
