Florida is as flat as a pancake. They're probably worried that some yahoo is going to take a potshot without a proper backdrop, and put the bullet into a trailer 2 miles away.
What do you use then? A joeblade?
What about shotguns?
Hey! Mount Trashmore in Ft. Lauderdale is about 200 ft high!
“Florida is as flat as a pancake. They’re probably worried that some yahoo is going to take a potshot without a proper backdrop, and put the bullet into a trailer 2 miles away. “
Having dealt with the “Possum Police” as the FloriDUH Fish & Game Persons are called, the “yahoos” are the Fish & Game employees.
Consider the following:
1. A very short hunter is five feet tall.
2. The largest python in Florida is less than one foot tall.
3. Therefore, shooting at close range, the shorty will be firing at a minimum of a 30 degree angle and could likely be shooting at more than a 45 degree angle.
It is unlikely any richochet would occur.
However, the “Possum Police” could have OK’ed shotguns.
They didn’t.
That is why they ARE “Possum Police”. Not they they are slow moving, just slow.
