At a target, I agree. As a long time, avid hunter everything changes when you are set to kill. And tht is just an animal without the thought of it being a suicide mission or of being caught before you can make the attempt. It takes a lot of practice and conscious effort to slow your breathing and to gently squeeze the trigger between heartbeats to get off the same quality shot as you would at the range. Hunters have all faced what we call "buck fever". Its easy to pull your shot when you are inexperienced.
150 yard is an easy shot. Not once in my life have I missed that shot. I get iffy at 300. Beyond that is luck. And this is with the naked eye.
If you've shot the weapon before, 150 is pedestrian.
