Guides are allowed 3 each, btw. That's 3 in hand, runnoffs that are subsequently killed by the pack don't count against a licence. A bird-inhand and 2 in the bush still only counts as 1.



Guess the ideal wolf calibre is a 22LR then
only a joke






Actually, you may be right.

If Hornady brought back the 220 grain .308 caliber RNFMJ, and a similar bullet in other calibers, such bullets might be used against wolves. Like the early military loads, such bullets penetrate deeply without causing much peripheral hydraulic effect unless impact is at near muzzle velocity.

Such bullets would pass cleanly thru a wolf's guts, allowing the animal the ability to cover lots of ground before peritonitis laid it down for good.

What a crying shame that would be.
