[QUOTE="Ian M, post: 177244, member: 25"] Len, Keith wrote an interesting, well thought-out read BUT the bottom line is your primary question - do we really want that topic on LR Hunting at all. Some people have thinner skin than others and will jump to the defense. But, why should we be on the defense? I find that the more I see discussions about long range hunting and ethics the more I just don't give a ****. We are going to keep shooting long, I would rather devote my time to picking up good info to help my shooting and hunting. I believe a lot of the guys who write negative stuff are simply incapable of shooting past 2 or 300 yards so nobody else should. They have no clue of the accuracy, confidence and challenges involved because they have never been there and never will. I just don't see any reason to take up any discussion with those type of peopel, waste of time. Your call on putting the story up. I have been called on my writing about long range shooting a few times in letters to editors. I make one simple point, I shoot long because I can. I used that point a few times and got some nice support from guys who were not long range shooters. I do not give a rat's-butt about other guys opinions, or their ethics, or their letters or crap they put on websites. Way more better things to do. Some of the guys who enjoy arguing might feel different. I see nothing gained by debating this with someone who knows diddly about our sport - or appearing to be on the defensive by even mentioning the topic. [/QUOTE]
