Effective Fighting Distance in an EOTWAWKI Scenario

While doing a quick google search on the thread topic, I found the following blog: http://donaldmsensing.blogspot.com/2...distances.html

Assuming that the information presented in the blog is accurate, it fits with my personal observations here in N. Georgia. Unless the invading army/unruly mob/zombie horde is forced to cross an open field, or is driving down a long stretch of straight road, I think line-of-sight shots over 75 yards at a target without the advantage of cover would be rare.

What say you?

While it may make for a lively discussion, EOTWAWKI does not happen here.

I've posted in the wrong place, or posted an unapproved topic?
