If you need a high capacity magazine to go hunting, you should take up a different hobby because you suck at it...
I don't think the gun fanatics are even trying to deceive anyone anymore about the hunting aspect. They simply say they want them for (better) self defense as they are easier to shoot, and you can take out a bad person with a gun, much more effectively.

Or as Alex Jones says, they are fun to shoot.

It's Michelle Bachmann's favorite gun

BACHMANN: My favorite gun is an AR-15 because you can be so accurate with it, and I scored the best in my [gun safety] class of any of the men too in that class.

MICKELSON: The AR-15--

BACHMANN: It's a rifle -- I love that gun.

MICKELSON: --it's a combat weapon! It can be made automatic, but it's a semi-automatic .222 I think.

BACHMANN: I like being accurate, and that is a great gun.

MICKELSON: Accurate and apparently lots of firepower and many many shots.

BACHMANN: Many many shots, yeah.
