    I have put down cows and bulls with a 308, 7.62 and 12 ga. I have shot a lot of goats with 308 subsonics. A bull is a tough animal with thick skin, bones and muscles. Use a full power 308, preferably with a heavy 180 grain bullet, aim for the head or neck and make sure you have a good shooting position. BUT before even attempting this, make sure you get plenty of shooting practice and can hit a small enough target to kill the bull at the range you intend to shoot.
