Default RE: .50 BMG

I don't see any thing unetical about it.It's a BIG,BIG, gun to pack around,shells are exspensive,and optics are to.It is shurly up to the task of handling them at long,long range farther that I care to shoot.The biggest problem I see is a good hunting bullet that won't destroy 1/2 of what you shoot and will hold up at ranges of 200-500 yds.

Now here comes my problem with it,I like to hunt and by that I mean get close as I possibly can,match my skills with the animal I hunt.If I can sneak up to Mr.Elk in his bed and dispatch him while he is still sleeping,not knowing what just happened.To me thats hunting,tracking him,watching him,know his moves so well he thinks that I'm a elk.
If you like the chalange of killing from 2000 yds thats fine but from where I come from thats sniping not hunting.
