In between rain showers, I spotted this boar renovating the pasture. POI between left shoulder and the ear, quartering away. 123 SST 28.0gr ArComp at 35 yds. No exit wound, and I had to stand on him to get blood out of the tiny entrance wound. He was so busy I probably could have walked up and shot him with a pistol. One more not to put up with.

Thanks for posting gwtx but 35 yards is pistol distance if thatÂ’s all you have with you.

Glad you took another one off the range, hogs are so incredibly destructive.

I agree with bfilbey, I've taken jackrabbits at 100+ yards with a 44 loaded to less than 44 Special velocities. (That was more than a few years back.)
Do more shooting with both rifle and pistol!

Excellent. Finally seeing some hogs here, but ground is so hard (barely any rain in 40+ days) that they leave little sign behind other that poop.
