I suppose in 40 years time people will be arguing or claiming that using tracking point scopes is easy and real hunters should go back to the "old way". And the mainstream hunters countering back saying, it is still challenging, still a hunt, etc and nothing wrong with tracking point scopes.

It could be argued that if it makes the shot surer then it is more 'humane'.

However it is not as simple as the article mentions. Unlike firing a helicopter cannon at an armoured vehicle, the point of aim is not simply the centre of mass or anywhere on the vehicle. The point of aim for hunting is the heart, the lungs, the spine or the brain. Somehow the point of aim still needs to be 'fixed' as part of tracking point technology. Will that need a careful aim and pressing of a button to "fix"? Also what happens if the animal turns its arse to the scope, will tracking point technology still allow the firearm to fire, if the heart is still in line?

Needless to say, here on Nitro Express we will still be advocating the Wide V express sight.
