If hou shoot pigs anywhere but the head…your severely backin up…ive seen the bastages tote a 300rum 200 yards straight into black brush so thick a rabbit wouldnt live in it…shot through both lungs an 2 broke front shoulders…shoot…them..in..the…head…less you just wantem to run off an wanna trackit


Thanks. My hunting tactics would have to change to accommodate timed, precision shots. Most of my daytime hog kills have been walk up snap shots that require some ballistic thump.
