RE: hunting with the big .50?
You got to wonder what the indians were thinking about seeing the white man shoot thier smoke poles 50 yards at deer. I would say it would be on the lines of "Hey tonto, we need to get one of those". As shooter, we shouldn't let anyone govern what is suitable for what game. I got bowhunter friends that think anyone that hunts with a rifle is lazy, and not really a hunter at all. I try to explain to them, to each his own. Just cause one guy does it, don't mean all should do it.
