Re: 50 BMG, A HUNTING ROUND??

Did the article about 1000 yard hunting happen to mention how you follow up wounded game shot from that distance? Even a .50 BMG takes appreciable time to arrive at the target, and unless the target is entirely immobile, it can easily move enough to cause a miss, or much worse, a potentially, but not immediately, fatal wound.

Add to that the factor that many of these 1000 shots I have read about are across canyons, which would add even more to the time a shooter would need to arrive at the scene of his hit.

One more attempt to replace skill with technology.
