In all seriousness, what firearms and calibers would be suitable for Sasquatch hunting and defense?
What would YOU personally use to defend yourself from these 10ft+ tall 1500lb+ beasts?

Something like this or similar.

I've been shilling the Serbu RN-50 for a while, but there's a reason for that.

You ain't gonna beat .50 BMG in terms of bang for your buck.

I'd pepper it with flechette shell hand-loads, then rifled slugs. I'd have multiple shooters lure it into a gully, and open up on it. Hopefully there'd be enough of it after we were done to make a cool rug. I might bring something a little heavier along for the ride to keep him suppressed, like a 7.62.

30 rounds of 5.56 will bring any land animal down.

Well, how thick is a gorilla's skin? Now, compare a gorilla's stature to that of a sasquatch and you could hypothetically go from there. I imagine there's a general consensus out there regarding the general body proportions of the average sasquatch.

250 gr swift A-frames from a 338 winny and take the shot from 300 yards, it would still have more energy than a 308 from the muzzle by the time it reached the target.

or get one of these with an MP5 stock for maximum compactness.

there wont be much of an ape leftover after a 100 round dump of 7.62 real fuckin NATO.
>>
there's really nothing wrong with 7.62 NATO. its range performance out to 700m is perfectly acceptable, and it's lethal out much farther, and softpoints could kill any animal in the world.

you wouldn't need meme rounds for 'squatch. 20 rounds of .308 in a semi-auto or even a bolt action would be just fine
>>
>>31435785
hi Nonesuch how are you
>>
>>31435731
My answer for almost every question like this is my 98k loaded with the closest thing to WWII German service ammo I have, which is Yugo M75 8mm.

Or my AR with a 30 round ASSAULT MAGAZINE, loaded with m193: that shit has great ballistic properties.
>>
>>31435731

Full power .30 caliber projectile at least. My x54r AK is the smallest I would feel comfortable with.

50 bmg is preferred

hollow point 7.62x39
probably out of an AK, but an SKS would suffice. assuming its only one samsquanch im going after.

I'd say skin thickness is a fairly irrelevant factor compared to muscle, fat, and bone.

9mm
>>
>>31435731
In all seriousness? Dude really ? /k lives fromthe fact that theres hypotetically a beast that could withstand sheer firepower.

Nevertheless 45-70 should do the trick senpai

Else use 556 hollow points and mag dump center mass

Are you assuming Samsquanch isn't gonna push your shit in by the time you re-load a .308 4+ times?

G3 or CETME, semiautomatic .308 will kill anything and it will be just about the only rifle you will ever need.
>>
>>31435731
A self-loading rifle chambered in .308 Winchester with decent ammunition should be enough, especially at > 100 yards. I really wouldn't want to engage a 'squatch from less than 100 yards.

>mag dump center mass
As much as I think that this is the the appropriate way to take down a bigfoot IF they exist, I feel as though it will just tank 3/4's of a 30 round mag. Meanwhile it will close the distance faster than a grizz, charge you down, and rip you ten new assholes.
Speaking of which, this thread reminded me of this
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=F4IH-EqoHws
Although the footage of the shooting was short, I feel as though it went on for a LONG time in order to properly bring the elephant down.
Then you have that supposed story of those guys in Afghanistan that mag dumped all they had into a 12-15ft giant but it just kept going until they began aiming for its head, but that's pushing this way further into the realm of shit that most likely didn't happen.
My point is is that creatures this fucking big can take most of what you can dish out.

All of it won't even phase it. I'd imagine these things, once angered, would be a powerful as a grizzly bear mother defending her cubs x10. Nothing but pure adrenaline and muscle. You guns will be nothing more than an "iron teddy bear."

Marlin 95 with some front-to-back dangerous game loads, probably open ttip hard cast lead, or maybe a bronze solid, i'd assume a humanoid creature would have a rather mild hide, so some hoy ass ball rounds might just be fine.

secondary is something with a lot of penetration, probably a 10mm, copper jacketed bronze solids in a G40 seems ok.

If I can have anything I want though? The SVDK.....a 9.3x64 semi auto rifle with detachable 10 rd. magazines. it's basically a .375 H&H blaster.

Wasn't that whole story about the giant fucking fake? Not like the squatch is any more real but just asking.

Anyway isn't the story too behind sasquatch they come in a possible family group. Have fun taking one out only to get rushed down by some 900 pound greater demon of harambe.

>Anyway isn't the story too behind sasquatch they come in a possible family group.
Some guy named Todd Standing believes that they live in large clans, which could be as much as 200 or even more that migrate all the time from place to place to avoid being detected.
His belief in killing them is pretty much the same as yours. Just because you see one doesn't mean that there aren't possibly dozens more watching you. Kill one, then you're going to have to deal with a whole pissed off community of them. Mag dump, reload as you might, but in the end they'll close in on your position and you better pray that its a quick death.

from what i have read of people that AREN'T full of shit, they are ambush predators. they run game down trails with one behind, two or more on each side, and 2-5 at the bottom of the trail. the ones at the bottom jump out and fuck up whatever they are running.

that was one of the observations of the guys involved with the siege of honobia. also they try to get down real close to the ground when we are around and sneak up to steal food.

i know an old lady that says he sees them out by the Uwharrie national forrest in her back garden/fruit trees, she said they would bring her big bunches of flowers after she brought a laundry basket of apples and Anjou pears out to the back area.

shes been gone a few years now, but the animals loved her.

My grandfather who was 94 years old SWORE that his dad told him that up in Vancouver Washington where they used to live, there were apes or "monkeys" as he called them, that hid in the trees at night near Salmon Creek.
I take all of this with a grain of salt, but supposedly he told him that they would try to lure kids into the woods, so my grandfather wasn't allowed to swim at Salmon Creek in the summer time with his friends. His dad completely forbid it and gave him a good whipping after he found out that he went out there once after he was told not to.
