I know Im gonna get beat up on this one........as mentioned above I prefer to use just a ML and only a ML for Hunting, I just plain out Love Em! besides a Bow of course for Bow Season. There gonna probably legalize Rifle Hunting in our County for next Season, they allmost did this year. If they do I still wont use one, I think (in My Opinion) that Rifles as unfair as you can just shoot way too far at game that never know your even there. There's just no fun in that to me, I watch Hunting shows where guy's shoot at Big Bucks at say 300-400yds+, where's the glory in that, they never had a chance.
I gave up the Shotgun for the ML Im sure not gonna give up the ML for a Rifle. Some may say the ML is a Rifle....sure it get's out there but it will never be a Rifle. I fell in ove with a ML the first time I shot my first Deer with one over 25 years ago and I never looked back, for me a ML is all I'll ever need and 1 shot is all I'll evr need. If I cant get em with a ML than I should quit Hunting.
Next Gun Season all my Friends will probably be Hunting with there Rifles and I'll be right there with them with my trusty ML, taking some crap from them, but when the smoke clears I'll still get what Im after, a Deer and Satisfaction.
