That's right. If you're carrying a .30-378 and your deer has a nice hole through the boiler room, I'm going to think you're a competent marksman. On the other hand, if it looks more like he bled to death overnight from the three bullet wounds you inflicted, I'm going to think you're just another mall ninja with a big rifle.
