Yes generally that's it, but hunting holed up groupers, for example, I've learned that a reel can help also on a short Cyrano 700 (or on a Mares Medisten 70, I have one of those).
A Medisten or a Cyrano 700 is my favourite gun for stoning groupers into holes, but what if the shot grouper is stuck in the hole and doesn't come out at the first pull?
With a reel you can surface for breathing without loosing the position (and without loosing the gun too!!!), and you can also manage to keep the grouper under tension, preventing it to crawl back deeper into the hole.
vote yes (may I vote even if I'm not American?)
