[QUOTE="Cold Trigger Finger, post: 1132857, member: 56732"] As has been said. A normal deer bullet works great. The single biggest thing is you need to be able to hit the wolf in the chest. Or at least put the bullet thru the chest or head. . What ever you are going to shoot with. You need to be able to hit with!! If you can run 2" or smaller groups from sitting with shooting sticks you stand a good chance of killing your wolf out to 400 yards. Over 95% of all game is taken within that range. . And if they are coming to your call just keep them coming. But understand, they will be moving. IMO, zero your rifle for 200 y/m and practice on 6" balloons blowing around out to 400 yards. Sight picture/trigger control in a hurry is what you need. Much more than just the right bullet. I would go for 130s in the 270 and 90 - 105 in the 243. [/QUOTE]
