You probably should change that to "have killed", as last time i saw anyInuits hunting, they had 300 Wby's and were useing a Boston Whaler in the open water. They just don't live like they did in the 20's and 30's anymore.

BTW, many "Inuits" take exception tobeing called"Eskimo's" these days too.

Oh well. There's nothing constant except change.........

I watched a native knock down a mule deer with the same calibre,, with a long long shot for a hornet!
I watched some natives shoot into a heard of caribou with 223's and 30-30's andWOUND AT LEAST as many caribou at they actually recovered.

I'd say both the natives i saw, and the one you saw were idiots...
