Very true.

When I was at the gun shop, we always tried to make that point to fellows we were outfitting for African hunts. However, it was very difficult to convince many of this reality.

Too much recoil and too much price.

Those were the realities that kept fellows from buying the stuff in quantity and practicing before the hunt and I have no doubt that some added their names to the long list of shot-botchers who made the trip to the Dark Continent...

This experience started me on the mental game I've played for years; Assuming you can't force a guy to have both, which is better; superb bullets or superb shooting skill?

A conundrum to be sure...
