I wouldn't hesitate to shoot a Wolf size target at 500 with a SPR (shooting Mk 262).

Ok, I would if there was wind. Maybe.....

shooting vermin, like coyotes or wolves you really can't go too big or hit too hard unless you're saving fur.


nothing like a cloud of fur wafting across a snowy field and 20 feet of red mist on the frozen snow

AR 10 in 243/260/7mm-08 or 308 would be a great choice indeed.

Bolt action 257 Weatherby. That's what I take with me.

223 AR is all you need for a semi........
I agree, the 257 Weatherby is more than enough cartridge for wolves, will take out a deer (or anything in North America) at almost any range. Another choice is the 240 Weatherby. Not as versatile as the 257 but good for deer out to about 400 yards. Also a great varmint cartridge.
