.30-06 roars. Liberal anti-gun pukes defecate in panties and bleat like sheep on a 911 call. Shooter gets arrested, .30-06 and all other guns/ammo get snatched by police. LTC sprouts wings and soars off to parts unknown, never to be seen again. Yes, a classic playbook plan for success!Illegal to do, big fine if caught.
OP, use the 30-06. Because reasons.
If you make an AK out of the shovel...Did obligatory search..... Negative.
Porcupine must die.
Options include .22LR, 9mm, 38, 357, 45, 223/556, 30-06, 12GA.......shovel.
Thoughts?
You need an Amban Phase-Pulse Blaster. Look how well it performs on small targets.
This. On the farm I usually have a .22 pistol on me just for porcupines. I walk up close and head shoot them. We will Kill 10+ per year.Head shot with .22. Not a big mess.
And this is why porcupine must die, and relocating or ignoring Porky are not options.... Same thing happened to my neighbor's dog a few days ago, and my dogs play in the same space (neighbor's property). Also local Animal Control has confirmed that relocation, even by them, is illegal, but killing it is not.
Because you're just giving somebody else your problem.Dafuq? Why the hell would relocating them be illegal when killing the things is not?
Yep. This. Do it for the dogs...Head shot with .22. Not a big mess.

What Twigg said. You're giving your problem to someone else.
This. Friggin stab-rabbits. I shoot several per year and find they are, pound for pound, the toughest creatures known to man. I used to shoot them with a 223 but found they waddle off. I watched a buddy shoot one in the face with his .45 and it waddled off. I think they are so light skinned/boned that the bullets go right through them without doing much damage.
My best weapon so far has been a .204 Ruger I won in a raffle. They don't waddle off with the 204; that light bullet at hyper-velocity literally explodes inside them.
Funny thing though, Navy SERE training describes porcupines as the easiest meal in the woods. They teach you to walk up and rap them on the nose with a stout stick; dead pig.

yes, transporting wildlife without a permit is a big no-no. It can spread diseases, like rabies, CWD, etcIllegal to do, big fine if caught.

Well then friend, let me know when they do it again and the setbacks are safe. I will take care of your bear issue real quick.What Twigg said. You're giving your problem to someone else.
Now, if only Mass. environmental police would stop tranquilizing and relocating problem bears from the suburbs to my neighborhood when shooting them (as they ought to) would raise a royal ruckus. Bears are a problem here. They break into people's houses and kill their livestock. The state could give a damn about us.
