vid
OK after watching this vid it kinda makes me mad , 1st off you need to site that rifle in or get a better gun , or you need to practice a lot more, and really fmj come on spend the $ and respect that animal and take it in a humane manner the first chuck gets my goat , with a ballistic tip or hollow point he would have been dead i hope he expired and didn't crawl into a hole and die later ! im not even close to a ainti gun or anti hunting, im a hunter and atleast shoot twice a week and compete in benchrest shooting but when i see things like this its why they are after us , i groundhog hunt here on the east coast and you dont shoot at 15-20lbs chucks with ball ammo to me that's being cheep , do them a favor and use the right loads for what your doing , ball ammo is paper punching not hunting ammo , why was ball ammo developed because in war its not to kill just to wound and give them a change to live one wounded takes atleast 2 more to get him off the field , why do they not use hollow points in war ? because it will kill remember this when your hunting , And another thing if your shooting 200yds and your not able to make a 200yd shot dont do it i would rather put up clean kill# instead of well he might be dead or well hes wounded . I gets me when i started deer hunting when i was 12 i would see deer coming into the check station with legs missing and everyone was happy , i didn't understand when my dad drilled in my head from age 6 when i started shooting if you don't have the shot don't take it , i guess i was blessed with a really awesome father who tought me i didn't have to kill every time i went out and now i have 3 boys i dont like them to see these vids or the hunting channel gut shooting deer and calling it killing shots its getting away from what we should be doing right , im not trying to sound like a downer but it gets me , just practice ,practice , practice then you can make 200yd shots all day no prob and if the gun wont do it get rid of it and move onto something that will with good optics , remember the youth is watching , i think we should put the same training into actual taking game correctly as we do in gun safety, we all have seen maimed animals in the woods because someone just couldnt put the basics together to get the job done the 1st time , i have a custom build 6mm br that i deer hunt with and its set up as a single **** and its only taken 1 well placed round to bring those deer down anyway enough with the rant just wanna point out we need to pay more attention to what we do and lets do it the right and humane way .
