Um, not sure what fun it is to hunt when you can't see, but whatever.

Well if one assumes that a bullet travels at the speed of sound, this is no different than an un-blind person hunting with a laser gun.

And since that would be awesome, I'm totally in favour of letting blind people hunt.

Well, for one, a .30-06 fires a round a 2.6 times the speed of sound. But, I'm failing to see how the to a blind person would equal a laser to a seeing person, since a seeing person can see what they're shooting...

Hunting like that doesn't sound like fun for either the blind person or the guy aiming =/
