I guess the problem arises when the 80%ers want to do what the 20%ers do. Unfortunately it becomes the animals problem and no one wants that.

    We should be all diligent about sighting our rifles in properly and accurately. We should take careful stock of our ability and experience and adjust what we shoot, at what ranges and where we aim accordingly. Yeah?

    @gimp. There was this rocking horse. Its father was a Pole and its mother was a hard case.
    yes I remember watching a hunting program years ago with a bloke called Jeff something and he was sighting in a 25-06 Remington- fired one shot and it was about 2 inches high and an inch to the left at what looked to be about 100 yards - good enough he says - and I just cringed
