RWTF I think Old Joe was connecting the thoughts below. You know you can go back and edit out your 2-piper mis-attribution.

I guess it's the American way, go for the latest and greatest the bigger faster and more powerful the better it's what keeps our economy and country so vibrant and such a great place!!! That's what make America unique! Holds true today----That's what makes us buy a Galazan RBL, A-10 or Inverness even thou most have plenty of similar guns. God it'd great to be an American!!

Out of deep respect for Texas, and the States below the Mason-Dixon line, I will so do- or damn near die trying!!

Then you might as well stay at home because without the kill you haven't really hunted.

To quote Jose' Ortega Y Gassett....

"One does not hunt in order to kill; on the contrary, one kills in order to have hunted".

That's the reason I stopped deer hunting.....I had become a deer watcher pushed upon me by the deer management people...."Let the young ones go and wait on a big one".

Trophy hunting has ruined the sport of hunting.

After the success of the lever action rifle, the repeating shotgun was quite logical.
Nobody made civilian repeaters here in Europe but when FN started making Browning selfloaders, many Europeans put their doubles away as "old fashioned".

With kind regards,
