What makes a grown man want to play soldier with the scary military weapon? I hardly ever use the word. "weapon" in connection with any hunting application, but it is what it is."
think the guy ^^^^lives in california. must be some big bad coyotes there. guess that kind of explains his liberal attitude towards ar15 rifles too. what a douche.
?? the guy states an opinion and he's a douche? He's definitely not a liberal. As already stated, the guy in question has been hunting and involved in hunting probably longer than most of the people responding to this thread have been alive. He's definitely been there, done that.
I happen to agree with him on the AR platform style rifle. It doesn't mean I think they should be banned or don't have a place, just means I don't want one. I also never use the term "weapon". Sounds lame to me when talking about my hunting rifle...or "gun".
One reason I think he is so down on .223 is because he, like a lot of us west coast guys did a lot of night hunting. Hunting at night you want the critter to drop on the spot. Even if they take a few steps or spins they can be really tough to find. I had a couple buddies who used a 270 just for that reason.
I used a .223 a lot of years because it was all I had. I never really had too many issues with it as long as I kept my shots within 200 yards....which the vast majority of the time was much under that.
