[QUOTE="kennygss, post: 621910, member: 41156"] What set me thinking on this is the basic ritual of hunting. Pre-hunt sight in, travel, fire and foul to verify zero, then go hunt. Ultimately, if the Great Spirit sees fit, you shoot at an animal. IF one can deliver the "magic bullet" from a whispy barrel, why carry that 12 lb rifle all over creation? For example, I have a 1939 M70 winny in 06' that will deliver its favorite load to the "x" first shot everytime, After that, not much deviaton, but deviation nontheless. I have a steyr SSG that will do it , I dunno, like 200 times. LoL. Perhaps age is catching up with me and the answer is a "heavy style" rifle including stock design etc, but built light. Rairly have I shot more that once at an animal. ( can you fella see I am talking myself into a reason to get a new rifle. . . .LoL) [/QUOTE]
