3 dog Mike I agree
For the shooting of any animal at such ranges.
Really such irresponsible practices would not exist if such laws existed as in some countries where a "hunting licence" is cancelled for life if you get certain transgressions, such as wounding game.
Yes we all can wound an animal. the chance of it is very high at such ranges. Irresponsible.
I do not doubt for one second there are people who are very capable of making these long range shots with good hits most of the time. Yes they can read the wind or do not take the chance if they are unsure of the wind. The big difference to a steel plate at these ranges is, an animal can move. With the time to target an animal can move after the bullet has left the barrel and result in a wounding shot.
