Not for hunting IMHO. Great for shooting bad guys and varmints though.-----SS

Agreed, I don't feel that it is appropriate for a hunting application (breach of fair chase???)... however, the technology is remarkable.

I agree, the technology is amazing, would have loved to had access while deployed. Hope our troops have already been issued this product, although I would be willing to bet they haven't.
As far as useing this type of weapon to hunt any type game,IN MY OPINION, would be wrong. I varmit hunt to help control there population,limiting there distruction to wildlife and mainly to sharpen my hunting/shooting skills.
Again IN MY OPINION..... That is not hunting or even marksmanship, but it would classified as a "two legged varmits worst nightmare"
