Assinine huh.....damn Raider chill out man, I am not attacking you! What I was referring to was the deer hunting that is done in most of the U.S., in which guys hunt out of a tree stand, ground blind, elevated blind, or just plain still hunting fields, prairies and thickets in fairly "FLAT" country. And are often not very far from a truck,4 wheeler, side by side, whatever. IME (yes I have hunted that kind of country) that kind of hunting can be done with any rifle, and its durability will not be tested the same way as some parts of the U.S., and Canada.
Little defensive are we?????
