WCF,
Glad to hear those rifles of yours are doing a great job out there!

The story about the game warden is a funny one for sure and it reminds me of something that happened a few years back.

I was guiding up in north Queensland for pigs and bulls and was using a large bore double rifle for back up.
A couple of my clients who knew nothing about double rifles jokingly nicknamed my DR "the four-ten" as in 410 shotgun.

One of the clients ended up putting several shots into a good bull with very little effect, and I had to give it a Texas heart shot with "the four-ten".
Some time later the clients ended up describing their hunt to the land owner and they said something about me using "the four-ten" as a back up for bull hunting.
Of course the land owner was quite shocked to hear that I was using a tiny shotgun cartridge as back up and immediately fronted me to ask what the hell I was thinking!
When he saw "the four-ten" he really thought it was just a 410 shottie and it took some convincing that it was really capable of stopping even larger animals than bulls!
When he saw the cartridge though he worked it all out, and then there was no way he was going to fire a couple of shots from my "four-ten"!
