Aporkalypse???

Swinegermedon! That's Duesch for lets kill boars! Bringing the Howa 1500 in 358 Win for Fowl weather!

My 38-55 is a modern Marlin will handle 45,000 cup so no worries!

I could bring the Husqurana in 9.3x62 if needed! I'm taking it to Africa next year for buff!

I need to get to the bench and range.

Going tomorrow.

A K95 ? Sweet! Handled one a couple years ago, and it felt wonderful.

I had settled on 3 rifles to bring, but now I keep thinking of bringing others.

The current load is probably in that ballpark, so I'd still recommend not shooting any of mine . They will be jacketed bullet loads, so they will look a lot different than your cast bullet loads

Yeah my Marlin don't do j words!

Reminder

Last year I hit one a little high on the neck. It went down and wasn't moving except for his mouth. He kept making this growling noise. It really got on my nerves, so I had to shoot it again.

Yep, shoot them too far back and they'll run off and maybe not bleed much

And they are no fun to try and track through the mesquite..ask Carl...or any one of the guides....

They love DRTs

I shot one once took both front legs, hardly slow him down running on his elbows, the next shot right between the eyes as was coming for me! Got a little puckered too!

red dot works for me!

I draw and Imaginary line between the ear and point of the shoulder and try to place the bullet about two inches below the ear on that line.

ya!

sometimes they move a skosh from when my brain tells my trigger finger to squeeze and the bullet impacts.

although the blood trail is pretty good, if you poke them in the liver with a 500gr flat point

This hog porn is getting me very excited!

TexnCal what rifle is the high wall?

And for good reason. I shot one every day last year. It's good stuff along with the rest of the wildlife you'll see.

I just use a .444 and well...
