With the right holdover, I can hit the earth at any yardage with only 3 rounds (in case a cow or house gets in the way of the first two).

But good for her for ringing the 3 mile gong.

If you are going to shoot at me, please be at least 3 miles away.

Rule # 14 in gun safety, I think.

Mike_D can you double check this?

Kinda along the same line, I really appreciate Hollywood promoting the black 'gangsta' cool way of holding their pistol on its side. Now I can rest assured that any mugger will never hit me. Big Grin

I do three mile shots all the time!!! I never hit anything but I do the 3 mile shots! Big Grin Roll Eyes archerAnd that is only because my one shot groups with my .300WM are always in the 3's as the benchresters say!

No, it was a reasonably sized target, not overly large. I sent Bill the newspaper article from a friend of mine who lives there + verified the truth of it happening There are many things that I can't do but I don't claim them impossible just because I can't do it.
