Good post James and very true. Now for running shots. If the animal is not already hit I totally agree with that other post concerning running game!! Up here we have lots of hunters with the " When in doubt empty the mag" mentality. One of the more popular rifles here is the Rem 7400 and 742. You know , for when you need those quick second and third shots. I am not alone in wishing that semi autos were not allowed in the woods. The problam with that is what get banned next? Also I know several handicaped people who use them due to their limitations but both know how to shoot, aim and shoot once.
