I just missed a 300+ big boar, looked out the front door enjoying the rain and there he was, looked like a D-9 Cat was working a couple hundred yards out in the pasture.
I hate hogs.

Since you missed, did that big idiot damage your fences? That is the problem when you get into a bunch of them. They all bust and hit the fence at the same time. If I saw a solo boar, I'd take a shot.

Haven't went and looked scared to. He was along the stretch I just finished fixing. Thats what I get for grabing that dang 22-250 out of the cabinet. If I would have grabbed what I should have the old 45-70 he be laying there. Pop up that tang put it on a couple of hundred and he would have fell like he was hit with a semi.

Get an elephant gun. No need to worry about tearing up meat at this point. If you can only salvage one hind quarter, just kill a dozen.
I can't quit thinking about that pic from George's Creek that had 160 verifiable hogs in it. No telling how many piglets were there and couldn't be seen in the underbrush. If only 50 of those were reproducing sows, the herd must be up to 2,000 or better by now.

Gun is sighted in I just don't shoot that little flat shooting bullet much and I over compensated and shot over the hog.
I don't own a scope unless you want to consider a tang and peep one.

As you know that 22-250 is a fast and accurate, try a light gathering scope on it, zero it at about 300 yards. Have a rest set up , so there's no shake. When you hit a hog in the side with that bullet all you will hear is a keeer-thump. 8) And most likely a lot of hog squealing. :shock: :lol:

I don't shoot scopes end of story. I can't hit the broad side of a barn with a scope. Give me a Verneer Tang and a peep and its dead.

That Remington Model 11 got hot when I got up it was loaded to the gills with No.1 buckshot.
