Yea, at some point youre basically just calling in an air strike. It is a little difficult to define though. Its why I want to see electronics done away with. Take away the rangefinder and kestrel and if the man can STILL make that shot, good for him.

There was a video of the owner of Jimmy John's killing a big arse elk a few years ago. Guides bedded it down that night across a canyon. The next morning the rich pudgy man rides up on a horse with a literal entourage of people, gets set up with this 20 pound rifle and probably 20 more pounds of electronics and optics, big arse commotion of setting up, and kills this monster bull from across the canyon at something like 900 yards. That whole situation resulting in a dead giant bull elk was disappointing.

at the cost of higher recoil which magnifies the shooting position problem.


Recoil really isn’t an issue with modern brakes and suppressors
