[QUOTE="5575, post: 190982, member: 410"] I'm going on a wolf hunt this winter up north. Been debating hard on what gun to take and what bullet to shoot. I've did allot of Google searching and that seems to have confused me more. I'm a bow hunter more than I am a rifle hunter. But over the years I've amassed a pretty good gun collection and there are very few calibers I don't have. I know there are some pretty wise rifle hunters on here so I thought I'd pick your brains a little. Myself I think I'll leave the varmit caliber guns at home. Wolves are allot more like a deer than they are a coyote is my thinking. The shot may be a poke as we will be baiting on a lake. I'm thinking 7mm with 160s, 280 with 140, 25-06 with 100, 270 with 130s. Or just take the rifle I shoot 90% of my critters with, that being my 7 STW and 160s. Bullet wise I'm thinking of using a Barnes ttsx in all of them. Figured it'd zip through with minimal pelt damage. Then when I think about that bullet I think mmm why not take the 22-250 and shoot 50s out of it? Well, what do you guys say? [/QUOTE]
