[QUOTE="SteveBurton, post: 2919051, member: 59541"] This behavior is not new nor is it only in the gun community. Years ago, a good friend worked the archery counter at BPS. You would be amazed at how many people would show up the NIGHT before opening day for deer season and have a bow package put together. We would tell them they need to practice before trying to shoot an animal but most were like talking to a wall. There were many angry or befuddled customers the following week blaming the bow or arrows for their misses. Compound bows and crossbows made archery easier. The Creedmoor and PRC line-up have made shooting easier. None of them negate the need to practice. Unfortunately, I don’t think writers and reviewers emphasize that importance or the respect for animals anymore. [/QUOTE]
