i wouldn't worry too much about that angle anyway your not a smuggler so i wouldn't even give it a thought. there is no doubt about the goings on there iv'e seen it with my own eye's i wouldn't hunt with any rifle other than a semi-auto of whatever caliber i need plus a handgun and keep my handgun on 24/7 you just can't take a chance out there someone could kill you and they would never find out who did it that's scary !!
