Flyguy, Did the guy that built your gun ever go hog hunting? Did you ever use your 204 on hogs? Was it hunting over bait or at night with night vision? And, I think marksman ship is as important as the right bullet.
I've killed a couple 3's with a bolt. A semi might have helped put more down man, they haul the mail once things are figured out. That grendel and a 6 ARC are both legit for predators.I built a wolf specific rifle, AR-15 platform 24" bbl. 6.5 grendel loaded with 108gr Scenars @ 2800fps. Good to 500+. I have yet to kill one but completely confident in that loads capability. After owning English Mastiffs for over 36 years there is not a canine that walks the earth that's too tough for that combo. Ohhh that rifle shoots in the .2's consistently and has taken too many yotes to count. A 17 REM may be good for an up close NON windy day, what happens when you have a 10-15 mph wind to deal with? Your
Mileage may vary, plus I have 11 rounds at my disposal ya know, just in case more that one shows up to the call!!!

Well, the first tri was at point blank range as they surrounded me. The 2nd tri was at 400. I've got a few doubles as well. Most of the time a double is possible if you have a plan, otherwise even a single can be a problem. I had my first coyote tri this winter at 500, 550, 590. They had no idea which way to go, it worked out for me.Yeah buddy, spoken like a man who's " been there" wolves are in a different league!!! And yup they can HAUL THE MAIL like a freaken Antelope!!! 3 with a bolt gun is some mighty fine shooting!!!

Can't believe someone could trap 38 in one area. We have 270 wolves killed in the entire state per year and that is all methods. Trappers do by far the most damage and us hunters just mess around and get lucky.I'm hoping we will get a season again here in MN. It's been a long time. We are literally overrun with them. Had 38 removed by my place two years ago. According to neighbor, who had the DNR traps on their property, all 38 were exterminated....
The only animals more common to see are deer and turkeys.
20 one year and 18 the next. Back to back years almost exactly 12 months apart. No bs, not my style. I couldn't believe it either. My neighbor had no reason to lie. They had signs up and down our road asking to please stay out of woods as they were trapping. This was a combo of multiple litters as well. The other neighbors dogs were attacked in the yard that year. One dog was taken, one ran onto deck, and one little terrier stood to fight. He lived but was tore up bad. The owner heard the noises and went outside to chase off.Can't believe someone could trap 38 in one area. We have 270 wolves killed in the entire state per year and that is all methods.

Sorry didn't mean to imply it was a lie. Just a pretty incredible feat20 one year and 18 the next. Back to back years almost exactly 12 months apart. No bs, not my style.
