I don't live around wolves but it sounds like they are much worse than coyotes, any bullet into one is better than missing them ethical or not! They don't play ethics when they eat game alive! Ida shot every one that gave me an opportunity!
I use a Rem 700 BDL 7mm Mag with 175gr PP with a Scope-chief 3x9 BDC this was 6 days earlier .. as i said i call them in and have for years its fun fun fun
when calling Wolves i use my hands and howl ... then once i have them coming i will use a Primos Elk reed and squeal like a wound Elk or distressed .... there was a Video on u-tube called Western Wolf hunting 10 that show exactly how i do it ... been calling them in up here for 40yrs before i just use a elk call to squeal them in .. when howling them in don't forget to go back to same spot the next day as they will be looking for the lone Wolf and checking their territory ... the picture is from 2000 with a wolf i took yearly award for Alberta ... picture of a picture ... the other i called out the window as i stopped on hi-way .. it still went a bit but when i howled again it went submissive and lay down i got to 25yds before the picture ... was going fishing so i went and left it ...
as always remember you could call in other predators (Grizz/Cougar/BB/Coyote/Lynx)
