IIUUUUUUUUJJUUUUUU !!!!!!
Just phone me a farmer and ask me if I can do him a great favour, he told me if I can go to his farm to hunt three feral bulls that are giving him some trouble. They live in thick bush and are very spooky, he told me that when they see people they run away and that they jump the cattle fence (7 wires) like deers !!!
they have been living in this place for years and that they must be shot.
I'll sacrifice and do him not one but three favours

DAMN! Why cant terrible things like that ever happen to me!

Good luck and make sure to report back on your success!

Lorenzo,

You better take the biggest rifle you have. Good luck and enjoy.

There ya go, rubbing in your perfect hunting life again!

i shot feral cattle 21 years ago during australias tb and brucellosis eradication campagne and they were tough bastards, my 30-06 really was not enough gun so i went for head shots after that,after which they felt the full effects of the earths gravitational pull immediately ,use something adequate ,youll feel better and give anti hunters less ammo against us!!

Lorenzo-I'm lucky too. I live very near a livestock auction barn and every now and then a cow gets away and takes up residence in the woods. They get really wild very fast and soon they are almost as hard to find as deer. They are still surprisingly tasty though, even after living in the wild for awhile. It's big job field dressing and hauling them out and a small tractor comes in handy. Good Luck and have a nice barbecue. All the Best Nech

Thank guys, I'll be taking a Ruger N�1 in 416 rigby and a custom mauser 375/338

The rifles are not mine, I've sell my 458 a while ago and my 9,3x62 is not finish yet as I'm saving money for hunting the first two weeks of june in RSA (sorry Bruz )

I'll try to shot one bull per hunt because I don't want to leave any meat in the bush.

In my country there are not feral cattle as a common thing but sometimes this things happends.

I'll try to organize it for next week as tomorrow I've a pig hunt in a tree plantation .

I promise pictures

Back in the mid to late 70's, I cowboy'ed for a living and many of the ranches had populations of wild bulls on them. (Some of these ranches were up to 50,000 acres) In those days we used to jump off of our horse and unload deer rifles into them. Some of these 2,000 Lb'ers would soak up a dozen 270 and 30.06 rounds.
