[QUOTE="Ksmirk, post: 1312897, member: 880"] Ethical shot? What is an ethical shot? Fred says 75 yards is an ethical shot to take at a deer, Sam on the other hand says Fred you old fart these new rifles can take clean kills at 250 yards no problem! then you have Gunny over there that is not saying anything but he knows what his limitations are and knows for a fact that he can make a shot at 1125 yards every freakin' time! Now again WHAT is ethical shot? who's defintion of ethical are we going with here? I know what my my capabilities are in field conditions 90% of my shooting is just that in field conditions. Ken at T-Bird range has a 4" plate set up at 400 yards, sorry 426 and I get bored with it! does that make my ethical shot 400 yards? I know what my limitations are trust me fella's just wanting to get it cleared up on what an ethical shot would be, it's thrown around enough. I do know this most of the people that say I shot that deer at 400 yards really don't know what 400 yards is! you ask what was your hold over? they say I held right on target my 270 is a flat shooter it doesn't drop at 400 yards :lmfao: ok that 400 yard deer was probably closer to 150 - 200 yards. I'm sorry I just can't figure out WHY someone would say they did something when they really didin't! does this make one a bigger person? blah blah blah I'm gonna shut-up now. Fella's what is considered an ethical shot? 50,100, 150, 300, 400, 600, 1000? this is my idea of an ethical shot see what you think, the maximum MEASURED distance you can put 3 (in a row) shots into a 6" pie plate 3 days out of a week NOT off the bench but using field conditions.
