Wrapping up this post I’ll share the thing I did against my better judgment. Mate mate who was reading the wind for me doesn’t shoot past 200, if he does it usually goes south. As we had been asked to cull a few I put him behind the rifle at 620y on a hind, got him bedded down on a solid rest and he dropped it on the spot. So the next day I set him up on a stag at 600ish from memory, good rest again and same result DRT. So no wounded animal but yes that could have gone south easily. And now I may have set him up for future failures having him think he is now a ninja. I may regret that, and worse still fire deer may regret it more. I was only thinking of the culling and getting him a stag at the time. So not sure I would do that one with a short range shooter again. Your thoughts?
