Ha ha. No.
In fairness though, I've never taken a shot in a hunting situation beyond 500 yards. I just like to know that I can.
I had to pass on an extremely nice Himilayan Tahr one time because I couldn't close the distance. I promised myself that I wouldn't be in that situation again because of a lack of gun.

I had dinner with an African PH with 35 years of experience. He said two things that night that have stuck with me:
1) The one thing we PHs are all afraid of is Lions. Do this long enough, and you WILL get chewed.
2) no matter the client, the gun, the situation, or the animal. Take a shot over about 300 meters, and you're just hoping it works out.
Dude was pretty grounded.
