[QUOTE="turkeyrun, post: 4295301, member: 27991"] For the most part, MANY have no idea what 50 yards actually looks like and in comparison to a golf ball. The typical squirrel shot is less than half that distance. Sitting 20 yards from a tree, squirrel 10 yards (30' up, more likely 20' or less) is way nowhere near 50 yard shot. Is 50 yards possible? Absolutely, mostly a matter of practice. There are some incredible shooters out there. They all practice a lot. Can't do it, now. Out of practice. There was a time, my range time was: offhand at an 8" gong at 300 yards. I could consistently hit 10 of 10 with a 7 mag. I was shooting 80 rounds per month, on the range every week. Made any supported shot at a deer, extremely easy. Physically and financially unable to do now, but it was fun, 20-30 years ago [/QUOTE]
