Nahh. That's what barret 50's are for. That and
.55 Boyes rifles. Years ago, someone asked if you
could use a Barret 50 for prairie dog shooting.
The Humerous comments that followed were quite
funny.
*BOOM**Poof* No squirrel to clean up. Just a red mist for the plants.
Of course there was also the great thread on
shooting elk from a canyon over....great until
you have to hike down the canyon, hike up the
other canyon, find the dead elk, field dress it,
then drag it back down and up the canyons. Far
too much work. All while carrying a 40 pound
rifle.
