All were killed in September, when centerfire rifles aren't legal.

If I'd been hunting in a rifle season, with a valid tag, and saw 'em at 700, I would not have taken the shot. But only because I'm not confident I could make a 700-yard shot in the field, yet. If/when I get to the point that I'm confident, I wouldn't hesitate.


A wise man is frequently humbled.
