I see we have some economists on the thread.
"Well, yeah, it works in reality, but it totally sucks 'cause it doesn't work in theory..." i could not have said it any better. in theory, theory and practice are the same, but in practice they are not.

The prince shoots a Custom Stocked Sauer 202 in that video (supposedly chambered in 270 win shooting 150 grain bullets). He's considered one of the finest shots on running game ever.
I am sure he take everyone's advice on bolt manipulation....laughing.

Wow! You guys sure must be top level shooters and unbelievably experienced driven boar hunters!
Y'all should share your videos of correct bolt manipulation and better shooting on running animals! Formidilosus, most campfire shooters wouldn't have takes a single one of those boars because they are intentionally under gunned and using some silly trick bullet so they have to wait for the perfect shot, "because placement trumps everything", so they would have never even pulled the trigger, let alone hit anything. Define 'trick' bullet

Anyone using a bolt rifle that has to remove the butt stock from their shoulder to operate the bolt hasn't had proper training! Will you come show me the proper way to shoot a right handed bolt, left handed? I must be lacking proper training....

You guys do a lot of shooting at multiple running targets? Little tricky to acquire them through the scope at short ranges. I've seen that video on an AimPoint commercial. With both eyes open it is relatively simple to scan for your target then shift to the red dot for precision shots. This guy obviously has the precision part down cold.

I am impressed but I will be more impressed when I see the videos of the members post their videos on how to really do it. I mean, after the comments I just read, there are some real good on the run offhand shooters here.

elkhunternm, That guy needs a brake for two reasons. One to stay on target and two so he doesn't say, "Ouch," after firing that rifle. Back the the original post. That is some fine shooting. I cannot work my Pierce titanium from my shoulder. It binds up. But, I have no problem with my Weatherby or Savage. All are long action.

Hate to break it to everybody but there's more than a few thousand people in the US that will do the same thing with a 760 and a 12 pack.

Guy is a badass on the movers for sure. Think I've watched that video a dozen times over the years.
I didn't see anything but good hits that were putting the front end in the dirt.
My best record on runners was 6 piggies with 7 shots about as fast as I could run and reload an 03 springfield. Twas a good morning and I was on fire, lots of pig blood was spilt and only one that I spined wasn't dead on arrival.

This 34 yr. old young man is the hereditary Prince of Oettingen-Spielberg, a region in Western Bavaria, Germany.
His direct line dates to the early 1600's. He and his parents were guests at the Royal wedding of Prince Wm and Kate.
So, with a set up like that, why not take up boar shooting.
IIRC, his rifle has a custom stock with extra long LOP to suit his unique shooting style.
The boy is pretty good...

I'd like to see them do it if you take the 12 pack out of the equation.
