[QUOTE="jakelly, post: 723760, member: 26850"] The wolves in that country should weigh between 90-130 lbs. I would take a 22-250/243 class cartridge and shoot a partition or barnes x type hunting bullet. That's a fast animal (12+ mph trotting, and they are always trotting), in big country, and because of this your shot will probably be longer than you'd prefer. I think with a 223 and 60 gr bullets you may find yourself wishing you had more gun when you spot a wolf. If you don't have that option, I would carry my deer rifle, but my dominant concern would be dead wolf, I'll explain the stitch marks later. [/QUOTE]
