To do something different?

To test your skills as a hunter?


We are talking about an animals life here. Kill it quick, and painless. Respect it. Cherish the experience. I think an SKS would only tarnish the moment.
What about bow hunting? It's antiquated technology and all that (compared to rifles), but gaining in popularity every year.

Ummm. Yeah, okay, but how about getting into something new, with better technology? The same thing with the SKS. How about getting into something new, with better accuracy and stopping power?
Taking a model T out for a drive is still a fun thing to do once in a while.
