Don't need to see the target with a hunting rifle as there is a pretty way to tell if you hit it.... Did the deer fall over or not?

I was gunna say you've got quicker reflexes than me if you can get back on target before the impact

That's the sticking point here.
The hint is in the name of course - Sako 85 Long Range - it's not a rifle for 50m-100m hunting.
"keep the target in sights after the shot" is over selling it, you couldn't keep it in the sights but could get back on it in time with the brake if you're shooting far enough.
