Centerfire rifles
Our state is considering the use of centerfire rifles for hunting in deer season. There has been no centerfire season here for many years.
The rifles would be limited to pistol cartridges, though just which ones I don’t know yet. I know currently that 357 mag, 45 colt, and some other, similar cartridges are currently legal in handguns. Wait, here’s the description:
The proposed deer firearm season rule change language reads:
– The rifle cartridge must:
(A) have a bullet of three hundred fifty-seven thousandths of an inch (.357) diameter or larger;
(B) have a minimum case length of one and sixteen hundredths (1.16) inches; and
(C) have a maximum case length of one and six hundred twenty-five thousandths (1.625) inches.
So we’re looking at large bore cartridges that have a fairly short range, not sniper rounds by any stretch of the imagination. In fact, it’s probably a good thing, all things considered. I’ve been hoping for a centerfire cartridge rule, i have.
Anyway, in a sporting goods store at lunchtime today, I overhear this conversation. ” They’re gonna allow centerfire rifle cartridges”. “jees, if you miss where you’re shooting, think where that bullet’s gonna go”.
Fucktards.
YOU ARE THE REASON WE HAVE THESE STUPID LAWS TO BEGIN WITH. THE FACT THAT YOU WOULD EVEN CONSIDER NOT KNOWING WHERE YOUR SHOT WILL GO MEANS YOU DON’T UNDERSTAND RIFLE SAFETY.
Jesus Christ in a Chrysler, folks, if you intend to shoot at something and you don’t know what’s behind it, and you aren’t perfectly prpared to shoot what’s behind it TOO, do NOT PULL THE TRIGGER.
Hunting from a tree stand will always put your round in the ground, if it clears the deer. Hunting from the ground, all you have to do is be sure the damned deer isn’t standing on a rise, but DON’T PULL THE DAMNED TRIGGER IF YOU AREN’T SURE OF YOUR SHOT AND WHAT IS BEHIND IT. Man, I had to leave that store before I strangled both of the asses.
