IMO There are shooters that hunt and hunters that shoot. I am a hunter that shoots. I’ve never taken a kill shot over 150yds. Shooting for vitals is not hard at that range. 500+yds is another thing. Suggested/required proficiency should consider that. I honestly don’t know what grouping I could make at 300yds cause I never plan to take that shot so don’t practice to that range. If I’m within 2” of Center on an 8” circle at 100-150yds I call it good. I Always aim for center of boiler room and No problem with injured or missed animals. Same shooting standards combined with regular attempts at +500yd shots would be terrible practice.
Far More bad shots are made due to bad choices than competency. How do you regulate for that?
