I have been reading about Hog Hunting with a 22 Mag and it seems quit common ! But if you get on a hunting forum and said you shot a Deer with a 22 mag >they come unglued, tell me why is this? Deer are way tuffer then HOGS??????I think not.

Might have something to do with deer being a game animal and it's illegal to shoot deer with rimfires. Hogs are vermin/non-game animals and don't have caliber restrictions.
It has nothing to do with which is tougher.

Because it's illegal to hunt deer with a rimfire. The only reason we hunt hogs with a 22 mag is because the regulations allow us to hunt hogs in management areas with guns and ammo legal for whatever season is open. During Squirrel season, we can hunt with a 22 mag so that makes hogs legal with that combo during the squirrel season in the management area.

This is very Intro> > > just wanted to share some thoughts i had. i see a lot of people saying 22lr is too small of caliber for hunting med. size game. my family in central america hunt deer with 22lr(stinger ammo). no scopes, no stopped deer. dogs chasing at full sprint at about 200 yards. one shot gets the job done. they do have a different way of hunting in other countries, but no regulation on caliber. or the use of dogs. was they way my grandpa did it, the way my uncles did it. and i tell you they always came home with a deer. ohh and these deer aren't your california white tail size. there white tail with a mule deer size(big). last time i was up the i was 15 and the deer they caught was bigger than me

Is a Deer tougher then a Hog? I think a Hog would be harder to Kill? You think? Astounding stuff that. Your presentation of thoughts leads me to conclude there is something profoundly wrong with your circuits.

Hogs actually evolved from deer. It's all very scientific.
After the last ice age, the deer found it hard to find food. The co-op stores and farmer's fields had been destroyed by the advancing (and then receding) sheets of ice. You have to remember that this was before 7-11s, so food wasn't as available as it is now.
Anyway, the evolution happened quite by accident. A tyrannosaurus rex bit the legs off a few deer when it was stalking a deer herd. The creatures didn't die because the soft, muddy ground dressed their wounds. What happened was they could no longer feed from the goober trees or forage for Weetabix. They had to dig around in the ground for food or die!
Over time, their musculature changed. Their neck muscles got very large from rooting around in the dirt. Their legs and trunks became thicker as well from being closer to prickly bushes and thistles. Their hides got tougher and the hair got darker for the most part. In effect, they became rooters and tuber foragers.
According to the Smitsonian, this evolution was complete about the time the Spanish made Plymouth Rock (that they subsequently left for the Brits to "find"). The conquistadors were practical jokers.
Anyhow, the Spanish headed off for California and Arizona to work in the service industry, leaving the Indians, John Smith and Jubilation T. Cornpone to hunt and eat pigs and deer - two species that came from a common ancestor.
I'm a full blooded Karaoke and do not need a license to hunt, but miss the days when I guided city dwellers for pigs.
The term "pig" is actually a short form for "Pigmy Deer", which makes sense because Americans sure like to use short forms for stuff. US of A, Pres. and Pat Pend. (I'm not sure of this last one. It might be a name.)
Anyway, now you know.
