No i dont really hunt with too large of guns. Il ltake them with me but i usually deer hunt with a 30-06, Varmint with a .223 or .204, And moose or whatever larger game witha .300 weatherby or .300 Ultra Mag. I usually dont use too much gun. Ive too my .300 Ultra Mag for deer once though.

No i hunt wiht the same people every year and they love when i bring larger guns for them to shoot. We all bring something unusualyl large and we all have different calibers so its fun to shoot something different. Ill only use a larger rifle if im hunting from the top of a mountain and can shoot 700 or 800 yards to ther other mountain. Id do that with my 30-06 anyways though.

How do you judge the wind for the entire distance if you are shooting "cross-sky"?

If its really windy i wont shoot. I shoot alot at that distance and farther so im confident in my shooting that far as long as its not very windy or have any gusts of wind. I wontt ake a shot if im not 100% sure im going to hit what im shooting at.
