Weapons

    Rifles of 6 mm (.243) caliber or more are legal for caribou. 308, 30-06, 270,300 mag., etc. with 150 or 180 grain bullets are just fine. Rifles should be equipped with a good quality scope (sighted for 200 yards) and gun sling.

    For black powder, muzzleloaders must be of .50 caliber or more. For archery, bows must be at least 40 pounds.

    Bowhunters are welcome at all our camps. Some of our sites are particularly weel-suited for bowhunting: located in partly wooded areas along lakes or rivers, these territories offer enough cover to allow for ambushes as well as stalks.

    It is also possible, if you wish, to bring both your rifle and your bow and hunt with whatever you choose; every year, quite a few hunters harvest one caribou with their bow and the other one with their rifle.
