    the #2 or #BB is ideal for our big huas.....and they do get BIG ...Ive got skin here I shot years ago,its cut off below neck and still 6 foot to end of tail... two of us struggled to swing one over a deer fence.... if big roo ges a hold of your dog they can do serious damage...
    Ive been with others spotlighting,one fella had a 17hmr it worked well but the 7.62x39mm oh so much better..the 223 is just about ideal for them and the softer the projectile the better..HUGE difference between a varmit pill and normal round...the normal stuff still kills really well but explody ones just so much more emphatic.
