K... Maybe I do.

Lighten up man. You and I know it ain’t possible to go after a pack with a .22 and a really bad idea with even a single wolf.

They weigh around 100-150 pounds depending on their range and habitat.

using a .22 on anything over 30 pounds or on an armadillo isn’t going to stop something that is in the middle of it’s genetic program initiated by you becoming the target of the pack for dinner.

You want to move up to a minimum .223 and your success of a single bullet doing the beast in is probably going to be realized in 30-06 or .308.

They are more accurate, heavier, bigger, tear up a lot tissue and can give you ranging you will not get out of a .22 or .223.

.22 for rabbits and racoons = good.

.22 for game animal = really bad choice and desperate.

I don’t know anyone who would hunt a wolf with a .22.

But hey, your mileage may vary.
