Trust me, i know this, lol... most people here do not understand what bullet drop or drift are, or what to do to sight in a rifle at 100, 200, or 300 yards. let alone stalking techniques.
If you dont know what you are doing, yes.Aren't you more likely to just maim the deer though? Genuine question.
If it is more likely to just maim the deer/cause undue suffering, I'd rather a gun were used for a quicker less painful death.
