Ok so with the reward and all what cartridge would Arfcom pick to take one of these critters?

I am thinking a 308 would probably be appropriate for hunting Big Feets.

7.62x51 = good choice

Fail!

A Samurai Sword is not a cartridge. This is a gun board need I remind you.

Poachers in Africa use FALs to shoot elephants, I'm pretty sure a .308 will work fine on a monkee.

Chalk up another .45-70.  Jacketed 505 grainers will ruin just about anythings week.

I'm sure a 5.56 round will be sufficient. Either way, we don't have Bigfoot here in Florida, so I guess I'd have to go hunting for the "legendary" Skunk Ape.

.308 would be the minimum I'd take, in a high capacity semi-auto.

You are going to need a semi-auto in at least .308, because once you kill one, you are going to have to kill the others, or we won't be hearing from you again.
Don't forget to aim for the nervous system.(head or spine) You need to drop them in their tracks, or else they go screaming off in to the forest.

If I had to go with something that I have in my safe RIGHT NOW, I'd take my A-Bolt in .300 Win Mag, loaded with 180 grain Accubonds - this is for mountainous hunting.  If I were going into the brush after him, and would have to shoot fast, my Garand with standard 150gr ball.
