rattus58 first of all YOU are the one who insinuated that somebody accused you, not Skeet.
You also seem to have alot of hands.
That being said it is not illegal to shoot squirrel with a 50 BMG rifle. It WOULD be unethical. Defend that one. It is also not illegal in most states to shoot a deer at 200 yards with a 9mm pistol. It would ALSO be unethical to attempt to do so. Defend that one next. When you are done I can cite about fifty more examples.
As for name calling, calling someone BUB IS namecalling and is insulting in circles of folks who were raised right.
Skeet isn't wrapped up in himself and has never been anything but helpful to anybody I know of. He has only ever offered solid advice, so I don't think he is the one wrapped up in himself.
Now if we can ALL get back to the subject at hand.
gd357 I can understand that misunderstanding. Many times terminology is warped by those who hear it without understanding exactly what is going on. Particularly once it gets mixed in with a bunch of hard heads, or hot heads. Sporting takes a back seat when it comes to putting meat on the table. If you are a multimillionare, or even just plain wealthy I can see why you would want to keep it sporting. If you are hungry I can see why you would be less interested. I have shot quail on the ground, heck as a kid squirrel hunting in East Texas I have shot deer, rabbit, quail, dove, coon, and possum. I still don't feel bad about it.

"The gun has been called the great equalizer, meaning that a small person with a gun is equal to a large person, but it is a great equalizer in another way, too. It insures that the people are the equal of their government whenever that government forgets that it is servant and not master of the governed." - 40th President of the United States Ronald Reagan 1911-2004
