    I didn't mean to say DONT go hunting - getting out in the Bush is the whole point of it ! But dont be disappointed if you dont see much. @Nick-D is right deer will be concentrated and a lot of perfectly good spots will have none in residence so you need to be alert to the first fresh sign on the edge of a yarding up area.

    0.75 moa is very good but you also need to have that centered exactly where you want and practice at longer and specially shorter ranges like 10 and 20m. Also for hunting, marksmanship is 6moa while standing on a wobbly concrete block or sitting on a wet hillside using a flexi turpentine bush for a some support. A couple of years ago I decided I was losing too many hard to find deer due to missed shots and went to work on it.
