As already stated, I deer hunt thick woods. I use the same stands for bows and rifles. In fact last season my bow kill was at 30 yards and my rifle kill was at 10-15 yards. My 35Rem and 45-70 get a 25 yard zero. I then confirm at 100 yards (it will be a few inches high) then I'm G2G. I can hold dead on as far as I can see a deer in my woods. MAYBE 150 yards (in just a few spots that a deer has never stopped in) . Let me find some wood to knock on here but I've never lost one. I have long range rifles but I dont call them my "deer rifles" the subject of this thread.
