OK...just got over the long drive home from Texas and am looking forward to the next one...the pig hunt! Starting to churn on travel plans and weapons selection decisions....
Should I continue stunt shooting and bring the McFlame ( since Bobby wont be there, nor will his Blue Vein Throbber..) or should I bring the newly 'built' '06 and put big holes in them? The struggle is real Tom......... Decisions,decisions,decisions. You're driving bring both....I'm leaning .towards new .338 No 1 and Tikka .22-250 but still wanting to bring the .257 Roy No 1 but only room for 2 in my case

I am bringing my 336 Marlin 35 Rem (200 gr Maker mono), 71 Browning 348 Win (200 gr Hornady) and probably my pre-64 M70 358 Win (200 gr TTSX). I'll also bring my M610 Smith (180 gr LFN) as I would like to drill a hog with it.
Digging around I came across a box of ~50 new primed Frontier 308 Win brass for which I do not own a rifle. If anyone can use it I will bring it along. I am also looking to sell a new, never used, Oehler 35P chronograph for $375 if anyone is interested.

Ed..you may have to get in on the Big Bore Big Boar contest! I could bring the .475 Turnbull. Think I have some 275gr Speers for it, as well as some BFN hard cast, that would be good in moderate loads. Probably don't need 500gr Woodleighs  Odd that a .30-06 will be my small bore this year...:) Dad's 03A3 has never been bedded in its ancient Bishop stock, so I'll do that before load development. I'm told it likes moderate loads. Then there will be #1's in .44mag, and in .38-55, assuming they shoot straight.

Dang it I'm going to be shooting bb's compared to you guys. I'd bring my 300WM but it's really not much fun to shoot.

I killed my piggies last year with a 375 Ruger. Go big or stay on the porch!
