I don't think it's a trick question. If you're bringing in your favorite pair of .455 Nitro Express rifles to shoot politicians^H^H^H^H^H^H^H^H^H^H^Hwooly mammoth with they'd naturally like to know that you'll at least have an even chance against the ravening beast. Too many hunters killed in the woods by the game leave a poor impression and scare away new customers. ;-)

My uncle, may he rest in peace, used to go up to Canada every year to hunt moose, and he always took along a couple of rifles. .30-06 I believe.

Yours, David
