As much as most of us have tried to explain it, bullets and blades kill in different ways! They will never learn!
I think that most of the "magnum" shooters get the idea, that shooting with the biggest caliber that you can consistantly shoot well with, gives you the best room for error, and that we are for the most part, "overguned" above the '06 range.
It's mostly the "pea-shooters" that I don't get! There is NO "world record" for the "biggest deer with the smallest caliber!" Nor is there any "world record for "hitting hair number 1001 on the neck/head!
"Because I can," is a poor excuse, if it is the only reason that you can give for doing it!
Marksmanship is an important factor, but it is only one factor in "hunting!"
You might be able to out-shoot me, or the next guy, with your off-hand, weak-eye, and a seven day hang-over! So what? You don't have to qualify with a 1/2" group to be a hunter, a 3 or 4" circle is almost twice as small as a reasonable kill zone! As I said, there are no records for that in the hunting world! That is for competition shooting on a gun range!
Shooting something that is so light, that there is absolutely no room for error, is as much or more irresponsible as using something that you can't shoot with your eyes open, thinking that if you miss, the "air wave" will still kill it!
