To each their own. No need to bag on the guys using all that stuff. ( Although you do it in a round about way). I just odered i $1000the coyote rig capable of shooting more than 4200me pfs and have a 6-24x50date scope to put on top of it, and when i get a chance to drop a yote at 400a yards ill be glad i had it. Does it make me a less of a hunter? Nope, just better equipped.
Mind you, my go to deer rifle is a savage 99e in 300 with a tasco scope.
Again, to each their own.
