Hunting/Shooting, Myths and Misconceptions

Re: the blown barrels from slugs.:rolleyes:
Sorry ... but those barrels were ABSOLUTELY not split by just shooting a modern factory slug through a regular full choke. Something else must have figured into the equation.

I have shot many rifled slugs through my fathers old 870 full choke without a problem myself.

Saw this at a local gunsmith.He said they did shoot sabot slugs.What brand I dont know.He was to cut the barrels back beacause they both split at the end.He also told me the barrels on these guns are a little thinner than others.Just going by what the gunsmith told me.
 
How about some of our favorite anti-hunter ones?

- Hunting is unfair because A deer has no chance to avoid a hunter with a high powered rifle and scope - the hunter will always win.

- The use of gps's has made deer hunting too easy (can't seem to find the 'locate deer' button on my model).

- hunters shoot to wound because if the deer bleeds out before it dies, it tastes better.

- we have fewer animals today because of hunting.

and my new all time favorite:

- we should ban semi-autos because it is illegal to hunt with them. (new liberal party policy voted on at their convention).
 
"its a good practise to stand around a downed animal that must stay the night in the bush; to have everybody in the hunt piss on the animal's hide (that you plan on eating) to scare any wolves away....."


Bahahahaha......that one was good
 
.25 and .32 caliber pistols are evil and only for murderers. Handguns with a barrel length of 106mm are way safer than ones with 105mm barrels.

Don't forget.....
Guns kill people
 
From my father in-law:

"The polar bear is man's only natural enemy"
and
"The polar bear is the ONLY animal that will stalk and eat a human".

We got into that discussion when he saw the full mount Polar Bear in my basement... :)

This is great for fishing though. cut the throat while they still alive in your fish chest / bucket or whatever. makes the meat better IMO

governmet cares about people.... like PETA cares about the well being of animals. - with the exception of their own declawed-neutered-purina-dependent- bathroom-tissue-users cats & dogs .
 
Anyone hear of "shooting fmj bullets can ruin your barrel because of too much copper fouling". I have heard this from a couple different people.
Made me laugh.
