I've got a buddy who has in-laws who are Inuit.
Seems things like the 17HMR are in real demand these days, they like em for seals, and his BIL even took a caribou with this caliber.
His big gun was a 25'06, he gave it away because it was too big and ruined the pelts.
They are living to a totally different standard up there, they value their critters from every aspect, utilize every piece of them too, bones for tools, and fishing gear, hides for clothing or for sale, meat to eat etc. etc. they like small calibers because it does'nt ruin too much of what us white guys would just scrap.
