I have seen and read much debated issue of shooting of domestic & wild dogs here and at TFL since my being a member of both sites.
While i lived in southern part of the state i now reside in;[Iowa] i had many chances to hunt packs of dogs that had staged and roamed in rural areas where i lived.
These were normally large type farm dogs [collies, shepards, mixes] that would band together with the express intentions of harrassing and or maybe killing any other living creature them came upon.
Make no mistake, this can be a lethal for anyone or thing that happened across these types of animals grouped together with a "pack mentality". In the county i lived they tore up farmers livestock on a regular basis.
Hunting and killing them was on par with hunting coyotes. They are very smart and keen to thier enviourment.
This was @ 12 years ago and at that time i was keen on 243 Winchester chambered in a Ruger Model 77v. I did not reload to the extent i do today and used alot of factory fodder, Remington & Winchester brand in 80 grain loadings.
Any thoughts or experiances on this subject?
