All this was a LONG time ago when I was heavily into BP and hunted primarily with that or my Recurve. The past year or so has seen me getting back into BP on the modern side of the scale. I sold all my old BP guns years ago (and I sorely regret 2 or 3 of those sales) except for the newer TC Hawken Frankenstein rifle with the GM 1:28 twist barrel and I bought a TC Pro Hunter system and purchased a .50cal barrel for that. While I no longer hunt with a PRB, I have the utmost respect for those that do as I know for a fact how close you need to get and how choosy one has to be with shot placement. That's mostly why I get so riled up when people with absolutely NO experience with a PRB setup step up in here railing against everyone who uses them saying they have no place in the hunting community.
Obviously Bob saying a PRB was unethical was pretty stupid. But I think he supplied a lot of other good information.
