Kinda strange

[Flbt]

Ok this is bacilly a fl man thing besides living here I don’t know how I get involved in some of this mess
I had a buddy show me a marlin in 375 ruger
Said he got a good deal on it because a local shop had to buy so many rifles and ammo back during Covid.
Any way he was sold the rifle for 250$ and the case of ammo he didn’t say the price on the ammo.
So I was like ok any reason or just something to play with.
He said going home from work he saw where a tree a fell on a fince. Well the big deal it’s at a elephant rescue. We have had elephant and other dangerous animals get lose and cause problems. With our hurricane it very well could be a issue.
He lives a lot closer than I do so I understand his wanting the gun.
I am still known in leo circles and have family as the city manager in the closeist town.
So if they do get out and cause a problem I probably am one of the few that might get a call. Not will but might.
Since my shoulder has been torn up
The biggest thing I have are a 338 win mag , 45-70
Probably will never need them
But with a deep penetration load like a 300 gr solid on the 338 or buffalo bore load on the 45-70
Be enough in a emergency
Of o remember right the last elephant that went on a rampage in fl was taken out by a buch of 308 fmj buy a few leos

It’s to be honest is probably nothing
But we try to be prepared

And marlin doesn’t make a 375 ruger, in any rifle.

Yea sorry
Just of it there a elephant rescue
My buddy going home saw a tree on there fince
He got worried about them getting out bought the 375 r and ammo cheap
I get called by the local law to deal with animals mostly livestock that gets out
The only guns I have that Might be ok for that is a 45-70 or 338 win mag
If there might be a deep penetrating load
It probably will never be a issue I hope
But it has happened before where a elephant got lose and cause problems
Again sorry meds and dyslexia

I remember seeing signs for those road side attractions years ago. I also remember just east of Tallahassee seeing asiatic water buffalo along I-10, ales wanted to stop and look at them but never did. The buffalo along the interstate weren’t very long ago.
