What kind of spider is this?

[DFBrews]

So what would you use on those, Hornady .223 55gr Vmax? Maybe a Barnes 110gr XTP .300BLK? I think you would want to use the small fast mover to punch through the carapace and make the mushy parts mushier.

DUH black talons.

Gee, we could make a movie about it, we could call it "Eight Legged Freaks", shit, never mind.
I just realized that's what you call 4 Obama supporters................

Still think you would only need the 55Gr V-max or similar for black lab sized crawlers. I am sure you would need a small game and varmint permit though, probably no limit...

Jurrasic spider?
I'll take a M1A2 Abrams please.

Just think of it, a spider the size of a lab or rottie running around eating everything in its path

Nope, couldn't get that big. Without an internal framework to support organs, the organs would get compressed by the weight of the mass on top of them and the animal would die. Unlike plants with a rigid cell wall, all animals primarily have lipid membranes. Just wouldn't work without the internal framework to hang all the stuff off of.

A fellow soldier got bitten by one on the ass when we were going through field excercises in BNOC at Ft. Riley, KS. Poor guy didn't know what got him until the flesh started rotting. As I recall, they got him into the hyperbaric oxygen chamber, but since most treatments are ineffective, he still lost a sizable piece of his gluteus maximus and obviously had to be dropped from the course.

I got bit at Fort Sill,OK. nickel size scar & they treated it quick..
