Andy L., Ease up! I don't think Catfish is a slob hunter because he has shot at a coyote and it escaped. That can happen with almost any caliber rifle. You must know the coyote is one of the toughest animals for size there is. I have seen them running away with half their intestines dragging. They are extremely tough for size. If they can regain their feet after being shot, they are gone. What Catfish did is not slob hunting in my book. Maybe I am wrong.
Take a look at the next post subject "Beyond 500 yards". Shooting deer at over half a mile. There is a internet site called "Best of the West". They advocate shooting at game at extremely long range (1000 yds+). They sell the rifles and scopes that make it possible"sometimes". They show the hits at long range. They don't show the misses; and they sure as hell don't show the wounding shots. And I doubt they follow up on the wounding shots at that distance. That might better fit the slob hunter category.
