I did not intend to target stix.
Secondly. I dont have any real issues with semis. I understand some would like them. I just think it shouldnt be open slather.
And whats wrong with being an ocassional shooter?
Sitting over a warren now. Lol some shooters are keen, others very keen. Takes all kinds.
there's nothing wrong at all with occasional shooters, l'm in that category at the moment myself
there is a problem with someone spouting crap as if they know something but they do not
can you see why anyone would say they were being baited by this uninformed rubbish,
does it sound like its from someone who hunts duck or has had a self loader?
"Hunting with a semi auto shot gun, as you all explain can be accomplished with a over and under, if you had a fizzer then a semi can have a fizzer as well. The fact blast of the shot travels around 350m/sec and a shotgun has a range of less than 50m, the animal would have already started to move by the time 3rd shoot was fired and very likely you would miss anyway. Or you are saying your skills are that bad that you need 5 or 6 shots to hit your target. Considering the bag limits of ducks are not getting bigger in VIC atleast how many shots do you need to kill 3 or 5 ducks?"
no farken idea at all, it actually sounds like a duck protester
does this sound like someone who has experience and is not biased against hunting?
"I thought hunting was about the experience, tracking an animal through wilderness until you finally get the perfect shot, if not then try again...not be a Rambo and just shot 1 million rounds through the forest and maybe kill something."
it sounds like someone who has no clue about culling pest animals or the definition of hunting
a true FUDD has no experience but knows best about everything firearms, eg... the 22 rimfire range shooter who tells you the best load for your 30-06 or how to hunt deer and why you should not have a firearm type you were trusted to own for many years because its black or looks like a military weapon
we are all entitled to our own opinions sure, but this type of post is asking for trouble, its a put down
Stix was right
