No matter what a hunter chooses as a tool to hunt with, he/she must know the limitations of the equipment that they are using and must also know their own personal limitations and place that shot exactly where it needs to go. That is what an ethical hunter does. Those who will take a marginal shot at game with any gun, bow or bullet combination are unethical hunters. It is personally insulting to me that you would lump all of us who hunt with patched round ball into the unethical hunter group.
