I have shot my uncle’s Mini 14. Maybe about the same as an AR15?

I have made some long shots. But my dad taught us boys how to stalk game so many shots were of shorter range. And he insisted that when we pulled the trigger we knew exactly where that bullet was going. And its effect.

What many people don’t realize is many big game hunters are highly proficient snipers.

I killed that deer over a bean field in Middle Tennessee...No way to stalk...When I hunt in woods I use a Marlin .35 caliber lever action...Most deer are 15 to 30 yards...

'Real' snipers know that return fire is possible and take great pains to avoid it!
