    My local fud would assure you that hunting game beyond 200 yards is impossible, and for anything above 100yards, you require a 15 power scope.
    Nobody ever got shot climbing over the wall into East Berlin.

    Delivering the most precision possible, at the greatest distance possible, with the highest rate of fire possible.

    I once had a FUDD tell me you can't hit anything with a .30 Carbine at 200 yards and you could all but catch the bullet from that distance.

    He got pissed when I asked him to go stand next to the gong at 200 I'd been shooting at and bring me back the bullets he'd be catching from thin air...

    Its hilarious that people in the southeast use crazy stuff like a .300WSM with a 10+ powered scope (from Wal-Mart) for tiny deer at 50yds.

    .223 with a 1-4x can ethically kill any deer we have, at any practical range.

    If your not going to use an AR, then a 30-30 is perfect down here.

    I'm pretty skeptical. I shoot 600 regularly and 223 is hard to place at that range.

    That is a great shot, no matter how you look at it.
    "Why "zombies"? Because calling it 'training to stop a rioting, starving, panicking, desperate mob after a complete governmental financial collapse apocalypse' is just too wordy." or in light of current events: training to stop a rioting, looting, molotov cocktail throwing, skinny jeans wearing, uneducated bunch of lemmings duped by, or working directly for, a marxist organization attempting to tear down America while hiding behind a race-based name

    I think it was Minnesota that stated .30 Carbine was not legal for deer, but simultaneously listed even weaker .32-20 as legal.

    Hard to place on the vital organs of an animal that small at that great a distance.
