We use a 22mag rifle for the sheep as well as the beef we raise. It is a good step up from the 22 long rifle, but not excessive. Also a darn good varmint rifle. R DeSa DeSa Farms ___ This message is from the Blackbelly mailing list Visit the list's home

Get youjrself a .357 Marlin lever action rifle. You can use 38 caliber ammo in it. It will have a good knockdown power at close range and will not travel a long way if you miss...( 100 yd bullet drop). I use one for coyotes in what is now becoming suburbs. Cecil in OKla On 3/28/2015 2:02

I think just about anything larger than a .22 would do fine. Last time I had to dispatch I used a .308 with 150gr bullet. Im also out in the country where no one cares about louder gun shots. -Steve On 3/27/2015 8:04 PM, Rick Krach wrote: Members, I have used 22 long rifle bullets to kill
