I've considered buying a crossbow for a use case where one is shooting from an elevated position, there is no backstop for shooting from the ground with a firearm, and neighbors or livestock are just over a 1/4 mile away.

Think ridge tops during firearms season with deer traffic that is consistent. A year round tower blind in such areas would work well, I would think. It is one of the very few reasons I'd buy a crossbow. Every year I've watched deer in this spot, nice bucks, but with a firearm the chance of skipping a round or if you miss not accounting for the bullet in a backstop is a no go.

It might be an idea for your nuisance permit.

thank ya

Stop making so much sense, you will
Anger those that have had a hot job before

the problem is any test will be miss used.

repeatedly women who have almost never used a gun , do so very effectively to stop home invasions.

like dad took her to the range 2 times 5 years ago and watched her load the 38 , she made it work.
would she have taken a test at a range and jumped the hoops , no.

you know what they call a test to carry a gun or to vote , a Jim Crow law.

a billion guns 330 million people and actual accidental deaths are sub 1 in a million

At least we know how to spell, how do you find your way around a ballot?

I had luck with the 60 gr sierra hp. I loaded my .243(6mm) to about 3100 fps.

Thanks for the input everyone.

Even without that report you can tell it is all wound up. Bison are actually more subtle than cattle that have been domesticated. By the time bison lift their tail, hop up off their front feet a few inches, or grunt the wrong way you might already be in a lot of trouble because they are fast and they are determined.
