I'm just a hunter. Could give a rat's patoot about bench shooting or shots beyond 300 yards. Haven't had any problems filling tags that I can recall. Not planning a goat/sheep hunt anytime soon or investing in a 5-25 cds scope.

The real proof doesn't happen shooting at paper or gongs unless ones in a range competition anyways.

I wonder if bow hunters practise hitting a 3" bullseye at 150 yards? Amazingly a lot of them fill their tags too.
Im just a hunter too
Repeatability is huge to me
You just dont get that using a lead sled to zero then shooting off of bags in real situations
I think ringing those little gongs at the end of the range is awesome
That way if that animal of a lifetime is 400 yards away
I know without a shadow of a doubt
That its when that trigger brakes
Its going straight down
