Most of this deals with sighting in at the range but there is more.
1. I got me all kinds of 30-06 rounds here to hunt with just in case. (You want to zero your rifle with the same rounds you intend to hunt with. Any change in brand or bullet weight will change youur zero)
2. The gunsmith bore sighted my gun with a Laser 2 years ago, Im ready to go. (Not on your best day, I never trust a bore sight with a laser, only range testing will give you a true zero, your lucky if it gets you on paper.)
3. I dont need a chair Ill just lean across the bench and sight in. (Known as the Ft Polk butt crack shooters, this bunch never listens to anybody. You need to learn good bench rest tech before you start wasting expensive ammo.)
4. What are those little knobs on the scope for? (there are a lot of people that think attaching a scope to a rifle is all you have to do)
5. My grandpa showed me to do it this way. (Well that means for the last three generations your family werent very good shooters. If a range master offers you some help listen.)
6. It aint sportin to use a scope. (Well you probabley cant hit anything with iron sights either. But I have heard that one a few times.)
7. I zero in for three inches high at 100 yards. (Well thats good for Dall Sheep hunting in Alaska, but it is doubtfull you will even see a deer further than 200 yards in Louisiana.)
8. I heard now I can hunt hogs at night. (Yea well the hearsay gets a lot of guys in trouble because the dont read and comprehend the game laws, there are always specifics that need to be understood.)
9. We have a 500 yard ram target that everbody shoots at. They will burn up $100 worth of rounds doing that and never get sighted in for deer hunting.
10. I shot a deer 5 times last year and it got away. (He most likely never hit the deer at all.)
11. I never wear hunter orange in the deer woods. (Now that really is stupid)
12. We usally quit drinking in the hunting camp about 3:00 AM and hit the woods before daylight. (Yea right)
Got any more dum hunter comments. I have always said stupid things done in the field is just nature canceling out the weak links, however sometimes they do listen and learn.
