Home Forums Hunting & Shooting Handguns .357 vs 10MM

The one in the picture has hit way too far back, since it was 11:30 at night when I shot him. I could only see three hits and none of them exited. He ran about 30 yards and expired where you see him. As you can see, by comparing him to the Yamaha Timberwolf, it's about a 200-250 pound hog.

A feral hog isn't exactly the same thing as a Russian cross, but they still aren't as hard to kill as what people let on. In fact, if you leave them in a trap for a day or so, they'll die on their own. Like this one.



I think the little ones could be killed with a BB gun, but we used a .357, .30-30 (both with cast bullets) and a 100 gr .243 loaded down to 2200 fps on these.
