Reading through this entire "clusterfugg", it's not hard to tell who is shooter first, hunter second, or vice versa................
X-VERMINATOR I find it damn funny that a couple of you took what I said as a jab (it wasn't).......! x-verminator Well, ya got me then, I owe you one. 99% of the time when someone says that, it is. I find it funny only because, often a shooter/hunter will tend to push the range beyond what is necessary, set up for long range on purpose (not my thing!!), over scope a hunt, fugg around with their gadgets when the eye tells you its a MPBR shot, and snatch at airborne brass before it or the animal hits the ground. The hunter/shooter, IME only cares about making meat and horns..The K.I.S.S. method dominates and the straight six just works here! Considerably further than 400yds, IMO. I've found myself doing nearly all of the above, BTW........ X-VERMINATOR
Sooner or later our heritage of hunting is going to be a rich mans sport and the words "Outfitter" and "Hunt Industry" will be synonymous with cancer and A.I.D.S. among blue collar hunters like me and my family! (A.L. Williams - 2010)

For some it's simply the thrill of the kill. For others the thrill of the hunt means more.
I prefer the latter....

One or the other boys.... can't be both..... thanks for clarifying that for us X...

OK thanks.
I swear it looks a bit like country I had been in out near Clayton,with those prominent hills in the background near that lower country...IIRC it was sort of south and west of Johnson Mesa....I think.
Not important....anyway there were elk in that low country there as well.
Edited to add: Sorry that would be southEAST of Johnson Mesa.
