I have had to pass up shots on some pretty nice bucks (3times) because I was carrying to biga weapon
Could you explain?
I had to pass on the shot because of deer standing with the line of fire going towards an establishment, (hunting cabin, farm house).
Hi Zrex,
I know you are a fan of the 243 as am I but this confuses me. If there is a house, cabin etc beyond and in the line of your shot it shouldn't matter if you are shooting a 300 winmag, a 243 or 22 hornet.
you may be thinkingpenetration (i do not know that you are) but what if you miss?
This just doesn't seem safe to me
