Where I hunt the dark timber rarely affords a view over 100 yards. If it weren't for the gaps left by dead lodge poles (is there a benefit to pine beetles?), the average distance would be less.
To me 200 yards would be a long, long shot. I sight my 4x scope for 200 and I know that I'm pretty much covered.
People who say they take 400+ yard shots are speaking Greek to me.
