I've shot competition .22 for years. Most of that at distances twice what you mentioned here. 50-yards was where we'd start, shoot a few warm-up shots and then move out, engaging targets at 10-yard...

My thoughts are that pigs don't differ much, key word being 'much'. I wasn't saying that the hunting was the same, I meant the animals are pretty much the same. If you place your shot well, you can...

With all due respect Sir, that's about like saying that Deer hunting over there is very different than it is on this side of the country. Either way, shot placement is key. A larger arrow weight...

In Alaska I can see exactly what you mean. We're only allowed to hunt here for about 6-weeks or so in the fall so that's what I base my pack on. Our season leads into the early part of winter so I...

Never heard of those, I'll have to go to the local Wally-World and see if I can find some of them. It'd be worth the money if they're actually waterproof and work all that well!!

I've taken deer all the way out to a whopping 110-yards off-hand with a scoped rifle. I can't say anything about open-sights as I don't own any firearms aside from handguns that are open-sighted.
