Same in the South... Most hunters can't hit shit consistently at 100 yards... I watch them all the time at the range, and occasionally sneak a glance through the scope over to check out their "groups", if you can even call them that... Looks like someone shot buckshot downrange.“Most hunters” probably shouldn’t take a shot past 300yards I’d wager… not on the east coast anyway, luckily for the animals there’s not usually enough clear view to take a shot much further than that. Gravity isn’t the issue it’s the wind holds and people taking stupid shots because muh .300WM
Shot placement has always been king.
I have to wonder how many hunters even have a means of holding off for wind in their reticle?
