"effective killing range" just means "effective range". That is the range you may really do some serious damage with the bow. Refering to "The Evolution Of Weapons And Warfare"(T.N.Dupuy, 1986), English longbow has an effective range about 250 yards. Others have their estimation between 180 and 250.
Again, the accuracy of point-blank shooting does little in a battle. volleying rain of arrows to an army is the only thing to do in most of the time. Anyway, as we know, the standard distance between the mato and the archer is only 28 meters.
I think it's not polite to discuss OT content in this thread. Perhaps we should stop here or move to other place
