You know, I thought about that: Should the story have the Pope taking the two hunters aside,and saying: "In the future,you should consider using a .450 Marlin with hard cast 425 gr slug over 43.8 grains of IMR 7645,with magnum primers,and full-length re-sized cases..." ?

Then I said,Nah. That would probably spoil the joke.
