Are we shooting at the same animal? Probably not, we are probalbly not even in the same country. What difference does it make what I am shooting?

Big senario. We spot a herd of elk at about 1500 yards. We plan our stock, move to within about 300 yards. We are good to go, line him up and BOOM! he is down. The guy above us saw him to. leveled him with a 50 cal sniper rifle. Fair? regs. say yes, to me BS.

I have met guys packing as crossbow while bowhunting, I never thought onec to ask them why.
By the regs and the definition lies the difference, opinions mean nothing the rules and regs do.

No need to explain to you the difference between muscular and mechanical means is there?
