The guns pictured in the post by Zak Smith kind of show what I was talking about. Fine long range target rifles, but not quite what I'd like to carry while hiking the hills, but as I said, I'm lazy.

I can't help thinking back to my days as an infantryman in the jungles of SE Asia. Seeing the modern sniper rifles makes me think to use those in the jungle would require a fire team with machettes just to get you down the trail.

I carried a heavy knife to cut my M16a1 out of "wait-a-minute" bushes. I would have hated to carry one of those things.

But setting up, shooting steel across a canyon they would be the cat's meow.

But you have to take into account, I'm old, lazy, and have COPD. I'll stick to my Win Featherweights for hunting.
