After work rodeo today. Indianed up on what I thought was a pair of pigs. Only rifle I had was the 17rem, took my 45 to polish off any wounded. Trigger froze solid on the rifle in the 20mph blowing mist at 23deg, couldn’t make it do anything. So I whipped out the 1911 and got to business. 2 pigs erupted into about 20 when the shooting started, I managed to knock down two as they ran helter skelter. Dummies ran out into the middle of a half section of green wheat so I ran to the truck and hauled around the section to head them off. Managed to get the trigger thawed by blowing in it and killed a couple more. I’m going to have to put my 223 back in the truck, 25gr Hornadys are poor for raking shots. 200gr wadcutters are better but the trajectory sucks. Dance with who you brung.
