Ok fellas , love them or hate them i am being over run with hogs , after investigating a bit i have found out that the folks affiliated with the joining property are intentionally trapping and catching hogs from other areas and releasing them on there property which is a few hundred acres and ultimately they end on our property as well as there hog dogs. I am ok with hogs existing in numbers that hunters can keep at bay or relatively so. Here is where i am at , previously trapped hogs' are almost impossible to trap, so i am at the point where shooting hogs at night about my only option. I am not interested in dragging and loading hogs . Here is my Question, will shooting a hog in the ribs with a 22lr eventually kill when fired from 50yds or less. im not talking about pure gut shots or maybe i am. And i am talking about the single animals , a 42pellet load of #4 buck would be my medicine for a moonlight feeding frenzy on that corn pile . If buy some chance i drop some they will be put on display in a unique way !

I’d gut shoot the neighbors instead. Animals should be disposed of humanely.

Your buckshot load will drop them. You will do better with SV .22 ammo than HP/HV. Neck/brain or gut shot depending on your objective. I have killed a truck load or three with .22 CB shorts, one shot and done.
I am..........disturbed.

They have been known to adsorb a lot of punishment.
I would just plant them on the ground as often as you can.

I see hogs in the same catagory as wood rats roaches , fire ants and blow flies . who worries about whether a roach or a fire ant dies slowly from the poision we give them. there is a reason there are no limit on hogs or regulations on weapon selection.

Might check with Fish and Game. I would think they might have something to say about the trap and transfer of deleterious species. When I did nuisance wildlife control in the northwest, they were adamant that we did not trap and move any species. Any animals taken were to be euthanized.
Chronographs, bore scopes and pattern boards have broke a lot of hearts.

Hopefully these guys are joking, no animal deserves to die this death on purpose.

Head shots with a fine ($35K and up) medium bore double rifle is the only sporting way to do it. Anything less is just not cricket. You should also wear tweed and green Wellies and have all the meat processed into bacon, ham and sausage, cause them wild pigs is Tastee!
Seriously, gut shoot 'em. Buzzards got to eat too.
