I have the opportunity to go on a Alligator hunt at a fruit farm in Florida. The owner tells me that it will be anywhere from 20 to 100 yards. What caliber/firearm would be best? I was thinking about just using my 30-06 but I don't know if that is really the best option.
I guess the main question is, just how tough are these things!? I won't be shooting it in the head like most people do so I will have to take a shot at it's vitals. Some of the people that I talk to make an 8 foot gator sound like its straight out of Jurassic Park.
