Tracers for shooting about 6 feet? I'm confused!

If it gets u more views on YouTube and create more intrest in trapping why not. You be a win all the way around. Maybe after that dispatch with 338 from a thousand yds. That's should make it more fun.

Haha, I carry my scanner and thermal rifle when checking traps in the early morning. Hoping if they get off a little on the drag I can spot them. Wouldn’t think twice about dispatching from a distance if necessary.

Good way to start a brush fire if you're not careful of your backstop

At the range normally involved, you'd barely see it. That part of the process should be all business for many, many reasons

no because a tracer that is any good is also at risk of causing fires

also tracers and ball rounds don't impact the same place so even loaded in belts for air craft or other crew served MGs they don't give an accurate picture of where the other rounds are going

of course if your firing them from a Puff it doesn't matter much the POI shift
