I put together a Remington 700, Manners EH1, 20 MOA rail, Timney trigger and a SWFA fixed 10X. Hands down my favorite rifle to shoot and cheapest by far to shoot. The number of rounds I put down range since putting that together has dramatically increased. Wish I would have done it years ago...
Fair enough, do you have one? Is there any circumstance where you would dispatch an animal in conflict with the law? How about if a dog , cat whatever, that was not yours was hit by a car, was in misery and death was inevitable but some time away? If a ordinance said you couldn't dispatch it...
Yeah, that was one of my thoughts as well. I was thinking of it more from the standpoint of an animal is an animal is an animal standpoint. Maybe I've seen enough suffering and choose not to allow it when I don't have to.
By some of the the logic being expressed would you let your dog suffer beyond the point there was no hope of correcting whatever issue was killing it? Would you wait for nature to take its course and let it suffer a few extra days to let the "natural" thing occur?
I'm guessing he's not missing much, his definition of what sub MOA is might be different then others i.e. How many rounds in what amount of time kind of thing maybe
Trying to hoist me on my own petard eh? I've had to make a few decisions like that over the course of quite a few days hunting. Frankly, I've faced far scarier things in my life then a trespassing ticket in the jobs I've had but I'd tell those stories over a whisky drink and not on an Internet...
I've had more then a couple used Kimbers, all of which previous owners said didn't shoot sub moa. Every one of them has easily with or an ammunition change or not even that. Maybe I've been lucky but have escaped feeding issues as well. My personal guess is that a most shooters simply suck based...
I disagree with some of what is being said, but if you feel that way so be it. You could always contact the landowner, advise them of the situation and ask for permission to attempt to hunt just that animal if so inclined. I hunt a family farm in which permission isn't given out to the public to...
Gotcha, I like the 7mm/08 personally, but frankly killing deer and antelope at reasonable ranges is something you could throw a dart at a cartridge list and probably be fine.
