How about a 12ga slug barrel with a 3" mag

That will work I hunt with a 12ga slug gun most of the time here in NY

It's too nasty for pigs

shoot um in the ear its all good

Bring this one.

Yea, it's head would pop like a water mellon. I did that to a deer by accident one time.

You have to hit the ear first.

I use an Encore. Maybe I'll bring the 12ga barrel also just for kicks. I hope I can fit both barrels and my scatter gun.

Ive got a 270 but its staying home.
Has anyone used 223 62 gr Fusions on hogs?
I may bring an Encore 15" pistol or my 16"AR.

Roof, you got any other Encore barrels?

Just a 300WSM but its much more than needed for hogs.

Ahh Encore that'll work.

If I can find my old Rem Model 11, A5 Browning look a like, I'll bring it. I have never shot it so hope it shoots. But your welcome to use it. 12 gauge. Kids have the better 12 gauges I used to own. Still own but they have them in a different town.

I just hope the Encore shoots. It's been misfiring the past 2 weeks and read that it's a common problem. Not enough hammer spring. So I bought a heavier spring and need to test fire it on Sunday. It works fine with the 12ga. but not so much with the 30.06.

I don't own a 270 so that one is out.
Will bring a working 308, means I can get it dirty, An AR 556/223.
Both scoped and sited in I hope. The Rem 11 12 gauge
Maybe a 686 I have never shot
" a 44 mag for the fun of it
" a 45 lc
No telling what I'll grab.
Of course the 15" blade knife for Roger to blood on a hog.
Cause he can still run after them.

Then bring a few slugs, didn't know they would shoot 100/150 yards. Never used one. Could bring the 45/70 but no scope little lever action, fun to shoot. Not real sure how far that one will shoot and the drop at 150.

I'm driving down so not as hard for us to carry a few extras.

I shoot deer with the 12ga all the time at 100+yds. Got a 3-9x40mm on it. It's accurate. But then again, I miss a lot from that distance. But that's operator error.

Bring it.

If I remember correctly, blinds are at 100 to 150 yards from dinner.
Dan?

10-4

Yup thats what I'm told

for head shots, with a .270...
