I hope that hunter doesnt brag about his long range shots. Elements of marksmanship like breathing, trigger pull and pulse awareness are removed from the equation.
Good point and a must for open sight, long range pistol shooting also, hobby of mine.
I would add, if you can't make the shot in under 15 seconds, de-cock, put the pistol down, relax, get into the *zone* again.
I have found the arm muscles will start fighting each other after 15 seconds, for me anyway.
My buddies and I will throw shots at 200 and sometimes 300 yards for bragging rights at the range.
Scopes on pistols are frowned upon, so are Thompson Center Contender pistols, LOL.
