The 30-06 will, with the right bullet, successfully take any game animal in North America up to 300yds. If you are a hunter, and farther than that, get closer!

There are some around Balmorrhae but elsewhere it is pretty much a chance encounter. You might try a call to Magnum outfitters in Eldorado, he doesn't list hogs as a usual thing but might have some on the different ranches he leases. The further South and East you go the more hogs usually. But almost every county except far west and the panhandle has hogs. Be careful as some of the operations are put and take in a high fence area. "When you disarm the people, you commence to offend them and show that you distrust them either through cowardice or lack of confidence, and both of these opinions generate hatred."

Would need some guides, accommodations, etc. People will pay to do your dirty work... I wouldn't, 'caue we got plenty here. Some folks don't. Wrapped up in those nasty critters is a novilty to some, not so much to us... DF

I've read up quite a bit on Independence Ranch, and I'd pass on going there. They offer two three day hunts for $399.00. The sticker is, you can't get the cheapie deal, and use one for your self, and one for a friend on the same trip. The "free" hunt must be used at a later date. The package doesn't include tips, butchering, and corn feed for the blind locations. You have to use their butchering service-you can't cut your own pig. I've read some reviews by guys that have hunted there, and they don't seem very positive. Look up the reviews, and judge for your self, but I'd not go there. molɔ̀ːn labé skýla

Not sure who would outfit there. Places like Crane, Andrews, Lamesa, Seminole etc. JGRaider may know of someone guiding for them in West Texas.
