300WM for blue grouse?
I guess the new official name for them is either sooty or dusky grouse, depending on where they live. However I and about everyone else still just calls them blue grouse.
I'll bet the majority of them are shot with rifles regardless.

LOL. I have turned a few of their skulls with a zippity-zip just above their head. Because I don’t have a small enough caliber at hand at the time, to shoot at any other part of them.

I call them Sooty Grouse. FWIW..

And I suppose you call wolves around your place "Alexander archipelago wolves"? You haven't gone woke have you?

Dude, lame dig…. I kinda held you in high regards, amongst the old hands on the forum.

Go………..

That's likeshooting squirrels with a 45/70

Nothing wrong with that, you full of morals or ethics?

My thoughts exactly. In fact you would have a slightly better margin for error with a 45/70 than a with a 300WM for head-shot on squirrels.

Waggler…. I replied with a comment that was over the top rude. I have removed it. But understand that calling people woke will elicit one of two responses. Flight or fight.

I was wrong for the words that I typed. Take it for what it is worth. I trust that you don’t honestly consider me a purple haired bunny hugging gay woke individual…

No, not a purple-haired bunny hugger.... but you are from the Juneau area right? Sort of the Eugene of Alaska.
Just kidding, all is good.

Yeah, born and raised. I have family lineage from 1880’s here. Not wizzing on anything, but yeah.

Glad you are good. Looking forward to meeting you someday. I get around the SEAK region quite a bit….

That’ll do waggler……that’ll do.
You mean you don’t carry 2 guns when your big game hunting?….lol
I’m bringing my 338wm for whitetail in a few weeks. I’ve got a bear tag, there’s a wild boar hanging around, wolves & coyotes sometimes come out, always a coon or 4 come by. I could use a few different calibers. Now where’s the guy that’ll tell me what single caliber & bullet I should use for everything and how unethical and stupid I am for using the 338 that I love?…..hahaha

no shooting game birds with anything but shot in WI

been so many times it would be mighty tempting

but no

Good shooting

No biting into BBs.

Overkill is underrated...

I wish I could post a "like" to this comment.

I got bored waiting for a plane one time in the Alaska Range and went snowshoe hunting with my .338. Got half dozen decapitated bunnies with as many shots.

Brought a few snowshoe rabbits home for the pot while deer hunting with my 30-06 many years ago. Would already be headless for cleaning. The range was usually only 10 or 12 ft. at a sitting bunny.

And I am certain you giggled, just a little.
