Certainly not disagreeing with your decision, but for me personally, it's been a long time since I've bought a gun that I couldn't hunt with. While I haven't hunted with all the guns I own, I know that if needed every gun I own (except a .22) is capable of providing food for me and the family. I guess it's just a quirk I have about guns. Personally I couldn't spend that kind of money on a gun and not be able to take it hunting.
