Thread: Envy

I think without hunting regs here, we would wipe out 90% of the game population in 5 years. Kinda what happened to the bison 100 years ago. Too many people - not enough critters. City folk would kill for the sake of killing, thinking there was no end to it. Again, kinda like 100 years ago with the bison.

I have a trip planned for Jan 2019. I would really like to kill something using a "can" (suppressor). Looks like I may have to find a guide or friend to rent a rifle to me!!

Our govt tries its best to wipe out our game animals with poisons here but yet there is still animals to hunt.
Stick around and make some freinds here and I am sure someone will take you for a hunt, maybe a swap hunt?

just remember that unless you are shooting subsonic loads you still get the "crack" from the projectile when it breaks the sound barrier.
