Pete is correct and here it is in #10 in black & white, so I would suggest you delete it yourself, rather than asking a Mod.

I would like to see how many elk are wounded each year from all weapons because people are shooting beyond their capabilities. I was watching 4 bulls this morning. I ranged them at 191 yards. With a rifle not a terrible range. How many muzzleloader hunters would have attempted that shot instead of trying to get closer?
With the proper centerfire caliber and bullet combination, 191 yards is almost a chip shot at an elk and with a modern ML and scope most guys that know what they're doing and using the proper bullet would also not have a problem taking an elk at that distance either.
