that's a 308, which is why i'm sorta confused. if a hog can take a shot to the head and another to the beak with a 168 grain payload, and still get up, why in the world would a 223 anchor him? and yea... the scope was on. granted i didn't earhole him like i thought, so there probably was some unexpected trajectory involved with the range. hard to tell how far they are at night, but i'm not sure anyone else would have made a better first shot.

AND... since i was the only one there, i get to call it the way i saw it, so... YES he was in full charge directly at me! if i had a 223 i wouldn't be writing this now. well on second thought, i am tough as nails, so i could have gone k-bar on him.

rio - this smiley is for you... grin

if you thought that was cool, watch this...
