But I think there is something wrong with shooting where you have no idea what is downrange, no?
rule # 1 with guns is know your background. I've passed a few very nice bucks because I wasn't sure what would happen if I missed. As a gun enthusiast I could never forgive myself if someone, or animal be hurt or killed because I didn't think about where my bullet goes. It's really pretty simple and I find those who don't understand this simple rule should never touch a gun or knife for that matter.
