I got into ML this last year because my oldest son (14 y.o.) wanted to hunt deer. Of course I didn't have a problem with that.
But, I wanted to ML primarily because I felt it would be much safer than hunting with a centerfire. When I was in high school, a guy that was a few years older than me got shot in the shoulder while deer hunting. The guy that shot him, missed the deer and this guy was in the wrong place. It was an absolute miracle that guy didn't die. The doctors said that a fraction of an inch any direction and the guy would have been dead.
One of my best friends was bass fishing on the river and another kid down the river was shooting at a herron. First shot whizzed past my friend. Second shot hit him about an inch from the bung hole. He too was very lucky.
Anyway, I just felt the ML would be safer and safety is number one with me and my kids. But..........I knew nothing about it. Stumbled onto this board and heard Cayugad and sabotloader talking about the Whites. I think they had recently been converted to believers/owners by Underclocked. Wouldn't you know it, sabotloader lives close and was coming to my area to visit his daughter and her family. He had a little time to take Matt and I for a quick shoot of the White Ultra Mag.
I was sold and the rest is history. Matt and I really enjoy shooting them. We haven't given up our other guns yet though.
