What is the preferred weapon for hunting?

At 4 Amigos Ranch, we recommend you shoot a .243 caliber rifle or larger when hunting all animals. We recommend that our hog hunters shoot a .270 caliber rifle or larger, with a .243 caliber being the minimum!  If you decide to bring the minimum caliber, please use at least an 80-grain bullet or larger. Bow hunting is also a great means of harvesting your game. You can also hunt with pistols and crossbows at 4 Amigos Ranch. NO Full Metal Jacket Bullets Are Allowed, you must use a hunting round. Bow Hunting with three or 4-bladed broadheads only! No 2 Bladed Broadheads will be Allowed for Hog Hunting!
