No telling how many hundreds I have killed with a 22 or 22 mag in the ear hole.

But, that has no fancy name or slick catch-phrase......so, it ain't Cool!

I'd love to shoot one with a 55 gr TSX. I think an AR carbine would be the ideal weapon, especially in 6.8

Anyone who says a 30/30 is too small for hogs has lost their mind!!! 30/30 is a killing machine and hogs are not these mythical creatures that are near bulletproof as everyone thinks they are. I have killed em 30/30 to the chest, 223 to the head, 308 to the chest and 45/70 to chest. With my 30-30 I didn't load any special ammo, just core-lokts. I completely understand your point about a nice easy gun to tote around in the woods. This really becomes nice when you have to drag the pig out and a nice light short rifle is much more manageable.

Show me where someone said a 30-30 wouldn't kill a pig...

I've spent most of the money I've made in my lifetime on hunting and fishing. The rest I just wasted.....

What gets people in trouble shooting hogs is using ballistic tip on big boars and aiming behind the front shoulder. That ole cartridge plate will suck them up.

For all you guys that use .223/5.56, are your shots all head shots?
