I'm surprised this has not come up, but I think it's a pretty fun and informative youtube watch.
The moderator of the Backfire youtube channel Jim Harmer, has put out a challenge for guys to hit milk jugs with hunting rifles in hunting conditions. ie wind, finding their own range, etc.
The first guy that came out was a former marine and he failed miserably. The next group of three other guys took up the challenge, including one big game guide and they were about 50 % hits. We are talking under 600 yards, and some misses under hunting conditions were more like 300 yds.
It's got the LRH Forum (Long Range Hunting) kinda speechless???
Now Eric Cortina who is a well known champion shooter is going to take it on. He's not even claiming he will hit them all.
It's a pretty telling challenge for most hunters to determine what is their real effective killing range is.
